Great flying and you must be a confident flyer to take it too such a public place!! ive just had my third flying stint on my new HZ Super cub and made some great landings so my confidence is slowly picking up!!

You cannot beat flying next to the coast.

Great video!
The wind at the Texas coast is like a constant 15 mph plus. Also I would be worried about the salthingyer corrosion issues associated with flying in that environment.

;)Thanks all pvtzemerak i used my old fly cam one. never leave home without it. frazer1981, took a while but the cub is real easy and reliable to fly. You'll get there, just don't rush things or over do the cubs capability's. SCC, i would rather be where you are ;D mac, dont know what to say about that, Its a toy, corrosion not going to be a problem. If i left it on the beach for a year then the motor might rust up a bit!

Thanks for your advice garvey, shame you aint a gooner tho!! I am realising that a bit of research and understanding in the early days makes a difference in the long run.

My bro is a gooner, travels up from the isle of wight to watch them when ever he can. Pompey tend to take on your and everyone else's rejects and oap's. Still, were doing ok. ;D

Garvey76, I don’t know what to say about that. I will say that I didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers, I even gave you props for the great video. I would also like to add, great flying and video editing to that. It’s just that I’ve had issues with corrosion on some of my other toys. Your right, the SC is a tuff bird she would last a year on the beach. Got to say you had me, when I saw the cars driving on the right side of road I thought you were from Lansing, Michigan, US, but it’s Lancing, UK. You must have the camera mounted upside down and had to flip video vertical to make it look right side up, or flipped the video horizontal to make left look right and right look left. Any how, great job! Again, no disrespect intended on original reply mate. ;D

Hay mac no feathers ruffled at all and did not look at it as disrespect, sorry for confusion only said "dont know how to answer that" as never heard or came across anyone mentioning weather and location conditions that may possibley have an affect on the cubs workings. i can imagine the weather conditions are a bit more harsh in your area. Never "worry" about flying conditions, if its raining dont fly or if its windy, try not to fly Theyll always be perfect days. Thanks for all the possitive feed back it was appreciated. Think the difference in the use of the english language may have got in the way on that one. As for the camera, when put on the underside it looks in to a small mirror so everything is in reverse, so i flip it on windows movie maker to make it look a it should. Happy flying
