Hi, im sorta new to rc planes and all, But i've had my eye on this particular plane. Only one problem...I'm not sure which one to buy, The Shun Da Cub, Or the Parkzone Cub. I've seen several videos of each one doing quite well, and ive seen some very impressive onboard videos from the Shun Da cub.
Now, im not sure which i should buy. I can get the SD cub NIB for about $70 plus shipping, Or spend quite a bit extra and get the Parkzone Cub For $160 shipped.
Now, for my question. Which one is All around better. That means, including the price. So, is the PZ cub good enough to spend an extra $80-90 bucks for? Or would i be better off buying the SD cub and spending some of that money on upgrades.
Thanks, Any help is appreciated,
Ryan

The Parkzone cub has a very strong following. Can't comment on the other.
If you want an RTF starter plane in the cub family, the one I would REALLY recommend would be the HobbyZone Super Cub:
HobbyZone Super Cub - $159
This is the only semi-scale plane on my list. I have not flown this
one but the flood of excellent reports leads me to recommend
it to new flyers. If you REALLY need a plane that looks like
something people would be in, this is the one I will recommend.
It takes the same Xport accesories as other HobbyZone and ParkZone
planes so you can drop bombs, parachutes and attach other accesories
to extend your fun. There has a steerable tail wheel so
you can effectively taxi the plane. Great for ROG launches.
