What is your favorite mod you've done to your Supercub? It could be one that was fun or one that has saved you money!

I recently took a dollor store jewlery box and attached a servo to it, turning it into a drop box!

Re: HZ SuperCub

Best mod to my SuperCub will be removing that 27hz system and replace it with something-- anything-- else, and I recommend this mod to all owners...

Re: HZ SuperCub

Thats true, I started with a Super Cup LP and upgrade to a new DSM Cub, What a difference! Plus I was tired of replacing those long antennas! lol

Re: HZ SuperCub

I'm in the midst of doing bright LCD light mods... so I can fly at dusk/night.
I've seen vidoes of the lights I bought - super bright. Hope to have it up and running by this weekend - so i'll post pics when I have it done.

Re: HZ SuperCub

I did the same awhile ago to an older wing, I picked up a 8 led flashlight from the dollar store and too the led's out of the flashlight and put them into the wing, then wired the switch from the flashlight onto the top of the wing. I'll post some pics of it also, pretty simple and cheep!

Re: HZ SuperCub

changed to brushless and added ailerons to make it a 4 channel system. Flies like a dream. It flew pretty good before this but the motor-mount gearbox for the stock brushed motor kept crapping out, replaced it twice before going to brushless. Also, with the ailerons, it handles and turns like a charm.
