Back to Supercub
 

Hey Everyone, I realized over the past few days that either flying and landing my Stinson SR-10 last year was either a stroke of luck or I am not really not ready to move the past Supercub. My flying really sucks, lol. I crashed my Stinson twice last week. The first crash no real damage. The second crash, she went in hard. Cowling, struts, wing, landing gear have to be replaced. Surprisingly, the motor, prop, and shaft were great. I do pretty goodon the simulator, but I can't seem to get my simulator skills to translate to the field. One thing does confuse me, the rudder on my supercub appears to make the supercub bank as if it had ailerons in stead of a just a turn. Is that normal?

Thanks

The rudder on the Super Cub "banks" the plane due to the dihedral in the wing. Most 3 channel trainers are set up the same way. Super Cubs are wonderful planes, and though I enjoy flying higher performance planes, I still love flying my Super Cubs and My Champ as well. They are relaxing, yet a lot of fun at the same time!

Thanks G. Barber for explaining the rudder behavior on the Supercub.

You're welcome! Good luck with the Stinson as well! Keep learning the 4-channel basics as well- it will only help you get better at flying!
