I think it might be cool. I'm sure you could fly it in much tighter areas, and the landings would be short too. Hmm... might have to get the airframe and put a brushless in it lol.

I happen to have a Park 450 that I was thinking of putting in my Slo-V - I fried the ESC/RX. If it would fit in the Mini Cub it might be a fun little screamer. But then again the XPD-8 looks fun doesn't it?

for an extra 50 bucks you can get the big one, parts are still cheap, and it will handle a breeze.

well, since it only weights 7oz, with a park 450 i dont think wind would effect it too much lol. don't know how it would fly after you almost double the wight (batt+motor) though.
looks kinda cool, but for 119 i would get an ember and fly inside were its warm in the winter.

^^^ that is a fun plane, remember firm level toss to get it in the air at full throttle.
the new parkzone super decathlon looks cool. its a bit bigger then the minnie supercub at 35' and it has a brushless 380. hummmm.
