hi there, would like to say hi and what a great resource this site is.
me and my housemate were both looking to get into rc planes and after looking around for a bit it was hard not to settle on the super cub!!
had my first flights on the weekend and so glad i bought chose the cub, can see why its the beginners favourite! did the usual thing and took it for its maiden flight in 10+ mph wind, ignoring all advice, but was a dream to fly. was doing loops and a couple of touch and go's before the battery ran out and have been flying it everyday since during lunch breaks at work!
again, this site has already been helpful in choosing the plane and will be even more so when i decide paint it and do the usual modifications.
ps, housemate wasnt so lucky, having never even owned an rc car his has been in two trees, a few 'spirals of death' and a very impressive dive from 30 metres of which did so little damage it wasnt even worth repairing the slight crack in the cowl. brilliant plane
