Pla,
First, welcome to RCU and the wonderful world of RC flight. It's a great hobby, and there are a LOT of good folks involved, both here, and at local clubs.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet, make sure you find an instructor to help you learn to fly!
Cub's are not the easiest planes to fly at it is, and being new will mean "re-kitting" without help. (ie. That Cub will go home as a pile of sticks.)
Go to the AMA website. They have a spot that will help you find clubs in your area.
