Default A noobs delight

I lauched into the wind. I had the biggest grin on my face as i wached my beuitiful cub sail through the air. My smile grew larger as I exclaimed to myself how easy this is and how much fun the next 10 minutes are going to be. As if slow motion was turned off, my cub sped away at what seemed to be an alarming rate of speed. Everything was still going great but I was getting nervous because I had to turn. So nudged the stick to the right just a little bit. That beatifull little cub banked just a tad to the right. But it wasn’t enough and I was getting worried it was getting to far away. I gave the stick a bit harder nudge to the right and it started to loose altitude so I quickly pushed the stick towards me. It soared straight up. I threw the stick forward,… TO MUCH!!! Quickly pulled the stick all the way back and to the right to send it towards me. It stalled and started to nose dive.

All of this experience would have been educational until a baseball field fence decided to show up right where my lil cub was ending its nose dive. And BAM. RIGHT SMACK INTO IT NOSE FIRST

It was the most exciting 1.5 minutes of my life!!!!

and all this time i forgot to even touch the throttle. Not as much becuase i may be stupid but becuase i chocked

Nothing seems to be bent. I need a prop and nose cone for the parkzone j3 cub.

Anyone want to give me some advice so my next excursion might last a bit longer???
