That will be the 400mm twin prop 2-channel version NOT the 500mm 10x20mm motor/gearbox 4-channel version. Watch out for scams like that!

Same thing happened to my first Sport Cub 500 after hitting a branch at full speed. You could barely see the split line after I glued it back on. The root of the wing takes the most stress.
I eventually put a new wing on mine. You can too if desired: https://www.toprace.com/product/spar...-plane-tr-c385 The wing is the ONLY foam part they offer. If you ever need a fuselage because you can't repair that one, the identical one from the Rage Cub MX will work: https://www.hobbyrecreationproducts....e-super-cub-mx ANYONE ELSE NEEDS FOAM PARTS, Bang Good currently as wings and fuselages for the Sport Cub 500 in stock again, and they have not doubled the prices of those yet as that have with parts for the other mini planes. So better buy them now if you are considering it. https://usa.banggood.com/search/spor...v&ab_version=1 |

Me too, broke my wing in half twice. Super glue to the rescue and it was flying again in 10 minutes. Is that Sport Cub 500 fuselage in your Banggood link the same as the top race and Rage Cub MX? They both look blank in the front like the buyer has to carve an opening for the propeller shaft.

They are all identical. The fuselage comes in left and ride sides for easy motor install and modifying if desired. Nothing to cut out.
The only difference is that the Cub MX is based on the 3-channel Super Cub 500, and so it's wing does not have the ailerons cut out. |

Here's the Cub MX:
I've seen the Super Cub 500 parts at Monkey Hobby for a great price, but they charge too much for shipping, up to $30: https://www.monkeyhobby.com/volantex...super-cub-500/ |

You can do it, but being a high-wing bird I find it tricky. If you flatten the dihedral like I did to my Super Cub 500 then it gets easier.
I have not tried the T-28 upside down but I think it would do well. |

It doesn't do very well on the second half of an outside loop - not enough power for it. |

I just saw there was one on BG's CZ warehouse, and it said it was the last one. So I immediately click on the buy button.
I'm eager to see how good is this well renowned bird. 120 € from China, 70 from CZ, I didn't hesitate too long. I have three rookies to teach and train. I hope the poor bird will survive this ordeal. I bought good glues, anticipating, huh... Ship/ground interface issues. |

Then when they are a little less green, I'll do what I do with my other Eachine birds I'm not personnally comfy yet with: engage expert mode high, perform whatever you wanted to that required to off the gyro, then go back to intermediate wether the aerobatic move succeeded or not. I hope the bird is hot in gyro off expert mode. I wouldn't want to be bored when I fly it myself, since I'm now well used to the Mustang and Corsair. |
