I would like to hear some pros and cons on the Super Cub and the Magister. Any opinions??

I'd say the Super Cub doesn't really have any downsides. It's cheap, easy to fix if you crash, flies great, and you can fairly easily modify it later on if you want to do more with it.

It's very gentle but can do some basic aerobatics and is a great plane to learn on. I taught myself to fly with it, and I've since modified to have ailerons, brushless and lipo. I still fly it on occasion, even though I've since moved onto much more aerobatic aircraft. It's a very relaxing plane to cruise around with.

Yeah, I must agree with Tyler P. It really does not have any cons. It is a very good plane to learn to fly on. I liked the Cub so much I brought a second one and give it another paint scheme. I am now in the process of getting another plane, but I will always fly my Super Cub now matter how advanced I get as time goes on. I have also put video cams on it and flown it around. It's a great plane. When I was first learning i repaired it some many time and it still takes to the air like it did when i first bought it. When HobbyZone created this plane they were really thinking about the beginner. Well I hope you find what you are looking for.

TwoSlick2,

You are welcome, You will enjoy learning on the Cub. Keep in mind you will have some mess up's, but keep on going, and dont forget you can always ask the guys in the Official Super Cub thread for advice about anything about flying or repairing your Super Cub. Happy Flying.
