Default RE: Beginner with a super cub.....SO EASY!!!!!!

That doesn't mean you can't have fun with it or learn from it but it is like comparing a Volkswagon with a Lamborgini.
Hey! Watch that. I drive a VW!

And a VW and a Lamborgini probably weigh about 80% the same, so it's even a wider difference between a 20 oz foam Cub and a 160 oz Corsair. A landing that seems good with the Cub would drive the retracts right up through the wing, or merely tear them out, of the Corsair. And slowing way down for that easy Cub landing? Forget it. The Corsair has to come in hot or it stalls and makes a lot of crunching noises as it flies into pieces when it kisses Momma Earth.
