Welcome to the club mate. First on your upgrade list should probably be upgrading your wing saddle and battery box with reinforcements. You reinforce the wing saddle with tape (I use paper tape) and epoxy in paddle pop sticks at the back of the wing saddle, and the bottom of the fuselage where the battery plate screws in.

Also, if you're just learning, it's probably worth reinforcing most of the plane with clear packing tape also.

Agreed on the reinforcements, you will have many a crash/hard landings. Since you got plenty of snow there, think about making some/buying some skis for it. There are several postings all over about how to, and it's really easy. That way you don't have to wait until spring to enjoy your cub.
