I just saw Steve Herlacher's review of the 36" wingspan Hobbico Flyzone J-3 Cub.

I'd like to buy it and replace its electric motor with a Cox .049 RC Bee. Would this be possible? I hope so because I know the Cox will penetrate the wind FAR better.

The aileron servo would be used for throttle control instead. Would fuel-proofing be an issue?

I'm getting back into the hobby after many years and I'm amazed how everything has changed! I bought a GP Flight Sim ... THAT will help a lot!

Thanks for your reply!
