Default RE: Shun Da Piper Cub J3

Hello all. I am new to the hobby, but have read most of the thread. I lost control and purchased an Exceed SD Cub. It is due to be delivered in a couple of days, so I am spending a LOT of time on my simulator doing ROG's and especially landings. I've got some questions which, if answered soon enough, might save me some time and frustration.

1- Can I upgrade the landing gear for the CUB?

2- I have heard that the flight simulator really helps, but what are the differences
between the SIM and the real thing?

3- What props, batteries and repair parts can I get at my LHS? I guess I am asking about
standard brands and items.

4- I am concerned about the CG. Is there room to move the battery forward as everyone
advises, or am I cutting foam?

Anything you can tell me helps.

I have really enjoyed reading the thread, almost feels like I know some of you. Great videos.

Thanks in advance.
