Default RE: Dave Patrick PA-18 Super Cub

Dan,

I have the same thoughts about the PA-18. I just hope everything is in the box when it get's here. I've read more sotries about his bad customer service etc and I just hope I don't end up being a DPM basher.
Yes the Speedster is from Kange. Everyone has Cub's at the field so I thought I would be a bit different. A person at Chief said the picture does not do it justice. I'm excited and it should be here on Wed or at least that is what Fedex says. I'm going over in my head what engine to put in it. Small gas, or a big 4 stroker. I thought of a ZDZ 40 but the wings will rip off at full power. Then I thought of a small Brisson but I don' t know enough about them. Then the Saito inline twin came up and now wondering if that will fit in the cowl. Tough making judgments about engines when you don't have the cowl. I'm not a fan of the Saito 180, too much vibration. I had two of them and never liked them. Should be interesting and most likely I'll have a headach trying to decide.
