This is my collection of UV maps and sketches for painting the CubCrafters XCub.
I have a few UV maps you dont commonly see, as well as quite a few simple outline sketches (no vector lines) of many parts.
The sketches I use to re color and seperate parts for many uses, such as applying different textures to specific parts of the same file.
The sketch lines are outside the vectored area's, so can be merged directly into the texture and should not show in the game.
While they are not made specifically for beginers it may help you find/figure out what the parts look like, and maybe where they are located.
If you know how to use layers it will also make a re paint Much easier, allowing 'bucket drop' coloring for most major parts.
By request i made a short video showing how i use the UV's and Sketches to color specific parts

Usefull Links:
I use paint.net mostly (its also what I used to create the sketches), although gimp, photoshop and others should supprt multiple layers.

A great utility to write/re-write the layout.json after changes

Update
Added some missing Uv's and a couple sketches for the Float and NX i had neglected the first time around
Removed the templates, a newer template may be found here
Texture Haven is a great resource for good free textures complete with all the pbr files.

You are correct (assuming you mean in the templates), thats just the default texture from the Official folder without the 'livery' colors applied.
im not sure why it has a default grey wing but ... if you wish i can send you a white one? but its a 'paint kit' so should be easy to fix anyway. let me know if you wish a pm with just white
