SuperCub on Windy Days

[gigarange58]

The SuperCub was my first -- and still is my only -- plane. I learned on this plane, I've crashed this plane, I've rebuilt it... crashed it again... and still love it!

My problem is that I live in the Windy City. And even though the Windy City isn't really nicknamed for the weather (Chicago actually got that nickname when a newspaper reporter wrote about all the "wind" being blown by Chicago's politicians), this time of year we rarely see a calm day.

My question is: Can anyone recommend a plane that's as easy to fly (or nearly so) as the SuperCub, as forgiving when it crashes, and can handle itself in the wind a little better than the SuperCub does?

Thanks!

A second battery would be some functional ballast. ;D
