Hey everybody, found this place via rcgroups.com.
Anyways, RC flying was one of those things that i always wanted to do but never got around to getting involved with it. About 6 weeks ago i ran into a video on youtube of some electric planes flying around with cameras mounted to them. Thats where i started research, within a few days i had ordered a RTF supercub off the internet.
I got my plane a few days later and started flying and experimenting. I crashed often and got familiar with my LHZ for new firewalls and gearboxes. lol. Within a week i got myself able to fly no problem and able to bring my plane in without wrecking it. After another week i started getting bored with my SC.
I did more research and wound up going with the following setiup for my new SC.
Motor - www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=2112
ESC - www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=2168
TX/RX - www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8338
Lipo - www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=7344
Servo - www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=662
I also went out and got a new bare fuselage, wing and tail piece. I put the whole setup together within a day and a half, built a custom motor mount to fit the turnigy. Ive been using a 10x5 APC prop, going to start playing around with some others soon that i have coming in on order.
This plane really rips and im loving my new found hobby, Ive managed to fit my cell phone in the front of my plane and have some rugged video of a few of my flights. Enjoy
