Description
Cub Crafters XCub

From Wikipedia:

The aircraft features a cantilever V-strut-braced high-wing, a two-seats-in-tandem enclosed cockpit accessed via doors, fixed aluminium sprung conventional landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.[1][2]

The aircraft is made from welded CNC-milled 4130 steel tubing, with its flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric. Its 34.3 ft (10.5 m) span wing has an area of 174.8 sq ft (16.24 m2) and mounts flaps. The controls are driven by torque tubes, instead of cables, with the aileron tubes running inside the V-struts. The standard engine available is the 180 hp (134 kW) Lycoming O-360-C1 (CC363i) four-stroke powerplant, driving a Hartzell Trailblazer composite, constant speed propeller. In July 2019 a 215 hp (160 kW) version powered by a Lycoming IO-390 (CC393i) engine and a Hartzell Pathfinder three-bladed propeller was introduced. The new powerplant requires a new cowling and baffles.[1][7][8]

The aircraft has an empty weight of 1,216 lb (552 kg) and a gross weight of 2,300 lb (1,000 kg), giving a useful load of 1,084 lb (492 kg).[7]

The take-off and landing distance required at maximum gross weight has been demonstrated as 170 ft (52 m).[

Extras
This plane took way longer than expected to make, because of all the things I thought to add whilst building. Enjoy!
