Next step to the Super Cub?
 
I love the plane, but it's just too light. I am really fighting just a gentle breeze and I have a field that's probably able to contain 7 football fields. Was looking for something that's able to fly in the wind better. Suggestions?

I don't know... something that can fly in the wind at under $300. As far as my capabilities go... I can keep it in the air, do a loop, and a few turns and land :P

I've never built an RC, only RTFs.. low wing and high wing... I've only done high (I think, Super Cub)

sounds like one of the 40 size stick models(ugly stick) would be in order

Maybe you should try to hook up with some guys at a local field, I'm not trying to offend you in any way, but a super cub is a pretty easy plane to fly, so an instructor might not be a bad idea

I flew a super cub and it got boring fast. I then joined a local club, bought their old club trainer for $75 and buddy boxed for a bit. never looked back. so much better than the super cub.
