RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

The wind let up enought for me to try the flaperons. Into a slight breeze I think the roll out is less than 4 feet for take off and landing. There was no elevator trim or mixing required when the...

Mr. Mugen
I used your aileron mod from a few pages ago. Works very nice indeed. I modified the compartment to hold a 3 cell lipo as you posted also. I set it up with the DX6 receiver and a 20...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Mr. Mugen – one of my next projects is to add ailerons to the Super Cub. I see by your last post that you have concerns about wing loading. Is your concern from added weight to the plane or the...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Getting nice weather here for a change. The snow is still knee deep out back and there is plenty of room to take off and land with the skis. Last flight I was flying a little low and slow when the...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

WJCJR - I have been very happy with the E-flight 10x8. You will need to add 2 more nuts on the prop shaft as the nut seat is deeper on these props.

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

These super cubs are so forgiving. I hastily replaced a prop yesterday, set the plane down and floored it. It had plenty of prop speed but not much acceleration. It still got off of the ground but...
