Hobby Zone Super Cup LP BNF

Background

For me, this is where it started - a Christmas gift from my wife in 2010. This Super Cub is constructed out of foam and fits into the category of park flyer. It employs three channels - for elevator, throttle and rudder - no ailerons. I wanted the Bind'n'Fly (BNF) version because I planned to use the airplane with the Spektrum DX5e transmitter that was supplied with Phoenix, an RC flight simulator. After plenty of practice on the simulator I took to the air in a local park - what a thrill! I flew it a couple of times before I started searching for a club so I could learn to fly properly. When I found one, I quickly learned that with the light weight and lack of ailerons made Super Cub LP a less than ideal trainer. The Super Cub doesn't get a lot of use anymore, but it hangs in the basement ready for the day when my daughter wants to learn.
