RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

nice set-up you got there. Definitely time to add ailerons. What's the amp draw on the Himax and what size is the Lipo ?

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

I have my COG at 1 3/4" from the LE of the wing and she flies beautifully. What motor are you using? Maybe she nosed down because the elevators are angled down a bit or the motor is not powerful...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

All you really need is some packing tape along the leading edge of the wing. It'll cover any holes like that and avoid any future ones.

Check ebay also. Sometimes they go for $130. Usually goes for $159 with an extra battery and prop.

Sounds like your COG is not set up correctly.

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Some people said that it worked on their SC. It melted the foam when I tried it but I sprayed it on some cheap scrap piece of foam, not on my Super Cub. It might not harm the SC if you spray a few...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

I replaced the motor on my SC with a brushless Feigao and Himax gearbox so I have to balance the SC but I don't know the recommended COG.

Does anybody know what the Center of Gravity is...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

When do you expect to have the new motor mount done? Please post a pic of the final result. I'm also changing over to a brushless motor but it's an inrunner with gearbox.

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Nice job. I was gonna use some of that H2O paint but it shot out of the can like silly string,plus I really didn't like the available colors. Krylon Fusion has some nicer colors available.

Thanks for the info. That seems like a little too much. How does your Super cub handle in the air?

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

I might have to try it again on a better piece of foam. I tried the paint on some cheap low density packing foam. I wanted to use the camo colors the Krylon Fusion has. Olive for the top half and...

I'm setting up my Super Cub after installing new electronics and a DX6. Does anybody know the required elevator and rudder deflection throws so I can set up the new servos and the DX6 settings?

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

What's a good brushless upgrade for the SC that will fit in the stock motor mount? I don't wanna break the bank either. I'm most likely gonna use a Spektrum DX6 with it so I might as well upgrade...
