Default RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

I couldn't believe that I just stumbled into it at the LHS. That never happens to me! So far I'm quite impressed with this plane. I agree that a plug and play version would be nice but I doubt we'll see it in the Hobbyzone line. I've never had much trouble with the stock Hobbyzone/Parkzone electronics so I'm happy with it as is.

I hope people don't pass this plane over thinking that it's just for beginners. I look at it as having a very wide audience range from the beginner to the expert who is looking for a change of pace that can accept some mods and so forth. It seems like a very solid airframe that will invite lots of mods and experimentation just as people have done with the Parkzone Cub/Decath. The Super Cub definitely has a size and power advantage over the Cub/Decath right out of the box. For starters I'll be digging out the old drop module that I used with my Aerobird Challenger. Now let's see...where can I get some parachute men? Looks like it's time for a trip to the Dollar Store! Fortunately my wife has been suppotive of my RC flying addiction. She probably recognizes that it's a lot cheaper and safer than me learning to fly full-scale!
