Hey guys, I'm currently flying an aircore colt with an os 70 surpass. I'm building a hangar 9 cub 40 and will be putting my running gear out of the colt into the cub. Is there any tips or precautions for the first time I maiden the cub? I'm unfamiliar with there flight characteristics. I consider myself an intermediate flier at best. Thanks guys.
The Cub will float much more than the Air Core Colt, you will need much less throttle for it to fly as well. Cubs have a very short body that I understand does cause some difficult flight charateristics, I think they have a tendency to tip stall and can be difficult to handle on the ground. I have a GP .40 Cub but have not yet flown it, looking forward to doing so this season!
