Maiden Flight with Super Cub (Hobbyzone)
Well, I made my initial flight today. Take off was easily accomplished and this is the first flight with r/c aircraft. I practiced over and over taking off and then landing (after about 100 feet or so of straight low flight). The only problem was the landings...always nose down at the end after putting the throttle to zero. Should I land with 1/3 throttle? I thought the video showed the SC drifting in for a landing after cutting the throttle at 15 feet or less. It was windy and I was flying into the wind. I love it! I am hooked to r/c flying. I really consider my first few flights lucky, as I have read about horrible first flight stories. Any advice would be appreciated.
