Another palm-tree fanatic, great! Welcome to the club Joe. Allow me to recycle a recent post of mine: Watching this three part video is an excellent how-to of the basic super cub mods that are probably well worth doing before your first flight. They will make the plane much more durable and crash resistant. Basically, you epoxy in some popsicle sticks for reinforcement in key locations, cut a hole in the poorly-designed battery box to mount batteries vertically, and rearrange the electronics accordingly with some velcro or tape so it all fits together nicely. It's also a good idea to start playing around on a basic simulator. Try FMS www.heliguy.com/nexus/fms.html
