July 20th a Super cub was born in Tn.

Does anyone happen to know the top speed of this plane. Its brand new and stock rtf. I flew it so much this week and after one day of sketch flights, I can fly with ease.

Good question. I upgraded to brushless and reduced the dihedral and it flat out rocks. I'm talking Hobbyzone p-51 brushless speeds or better. But I have discovered that I should bore a hole with a carbon fiber rod down the backbone of the fuselage and ca it in for structural support.

I have seen u-tube video of a sc clocked on radar gun over 70mph. Look for it on utube. I think the search should be brushless cub and you'll find a match. Cool video for sure.

I was actually surprised with how much power it has stock but I am getting used to it already and I would like to gain a little more power for windy days. I am new to any sort of avionics and I do not know what dihedral is. In the mean time I'll check that video. Thanks

For the windy days, as well as power, more weight will help too. Dihedral refers to the upwards-angle of the wing. Notice it isn't flat, either side of the middle it bends upwards, that's the dihedral. It gives the plane a tendancy to stay the right way up (great for a trainer), and allows the rudder to make the plane roll a bit.

Thanks for the link I was unable to find that vid on youtube. Took it upon myself to paint it! Got bored with the white and blue.
