May I remind you that this place isnt strictly an rc airfield lol. Its a county park with limited parking and hundreds of joggers, hikers, and even horseback riders. To get this many pilots out there is no easy task. http://www.openspace.org/preserves/pr_rancho_san_antonio.asp

Hahaha- The nerfbombs are a big hit whenever we go flying :)

Gotta remember to watch the plane and not the bombs though ;)

Dang- forgot the parachute guys again. I hope we luck out with the great weekends again.
I love it when the sow stays up in the mountains where it belongs.

how do you guys prefer to put ailerons on the cub? I just crashed mine and am using it as an excuse to pimp up my cub.
also, how do you set up the bomb drop? thats cool!

Pimp it out! While you are at it, drop in a 450 brushless motor. It's pretty speedy on an 8x4e prop. The Super Cub is the Ford Mustang of after market customization-go nuts!

The mods you can make to the SC is almost endless. In fact I just added huge tires to mine so I could improve my grass take offs and landings. Hope they are not to big LOL

But in an effort to avoid a whole lot of typing and everyone who knows me I stink at typing I am going to refere you to this link here

I just finished a 4 servo mod on my wing with ailerons and flaps. I'll try to get some pictures up here, but I'm working on a full article of all my mods and how to's. I should have it up pretty soon.

Love the Flaps AK. I have been considering doing that myself or flaperons cant decide which would be better. How do you like it?

how did you hook up the parachute servo for release? my tx doesn't have "drop a bomb" switch.:eek:
oh yeah, and why do you put those bends on the control rods?
