This is where I think the hobby could do a better job. It used to be a beginner would make two stops. The local club and the local hobby shop. Either had people that could direct the student in the right direction. Now that WE THE HOBBIESTS have pushed for cheap products one resource for the beginner is all but gone. Replaced by the Internet with people willing to give their opinions without any accountability. It's no wonder our hobby is dying. As for the Cub, yes they are easy to fly however ground manners are not suitable for a beginner.
