Purchased a Super Cub for our Grandson for xmas,thought I'de just put it together and check everything was OK than pull it back apart and wrap it up.
Put the batteries in and turned it on to check all the controls and throttle and rudder are perfect but the elevator control is reversed,tried seeing if I could physically reverse the servo but not enough room between the servos,I tried another reciver but sane result.[&o]
Can anybody tell me is is possible to reverse the servo on the Tx like I can do with my JR Tx
I've looked at the Tx and can't see any controls that let me carry out this function
Cheers[8D]

if there isn't a servo reverse switch either on the front, or bottom of the transmitter, then look under the batteries... if no luck then simply reverse the servo arm on the servo so the arm is on the other side..ie if the servo is pointing left now turn the arm over so it points to the right....

There's a whole thread just for that plane, you might find some answers there [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=6636313]Super cub thread[/link]

My Feedback: (2)
Have you taken it back to the hobby shop?
I assume you are an experienced flyer, but just in case you are not, when you push the stick forward, away from you the elevator should go down.
Since this is an RTF plane that is all set up at the factory, if it is not working properly you should send it back or return it to the local hobby store.
Have you called the Horizon Hobby support line? Number is on the manual. You did read the manual, right?

Finally worked it out 
The elevator horn had been put on the elevator upside down which when placed onto the plane was then able to be hooked to the clevis that actually should have been the rudder clevis but was back the front in the receiver and vise versa for the rudder.
Thus the elevator servo appeared to be reversed but in actual fact was the wrong servo
BUGGER
But it's all good now and back in the box and wrapped
Thanks for all the advise
