HobbyZoneFloat Set: Super Cub LP

Great floats can't wait to try it out when the weather is better. And this does fit the HobbyZone Mini Apprentice. Just an update, the plane flies great with the floats and it is well balanced. Great for flying on snow and water.

These have been a blast since I mounted them. They snap in super easy and are well balanced in the water as well as in the air allowing for some fun scale flying and smooth water landings. I have modified them slightly by adding some rudders in the back because I did not like the Hobbyzone alternative and a rudder or rudders are essential if you want any kind of in water control. I do think I will later add a couple of chine like fins to the front and inner portion mid way to water line to prevent water spray from pushing up into the props plane of rotation. This has happened a couple of times and it puts a lot of water in places I don't really want it on the plane! I would use some tape on anything you don't want wet underneath your plane because these will splash quite a bit of water underneath. Other than that, these have added a great new flying element to my cub and I highly recommend them to anybody who has become proficient in dry land landings. Water landing are not that much different. Just keep your angle of attack shallow because they will become bouncy with a hard touch down. Oh, and if you get in a pinch you can land these on pretty much any surface. I have landed and taken off on grass (on purpose) and have skidded across a sidewalk and a gravel road (not so much on purpose) and didn't even nose the airplane over! They are very stable on land! There are a few tiny scratches on the plastic bottoms but to many laughing tears in my eyes to care! Get a set of these and go on an adventure! You wont be disappointed! Oh, I better add that I do have an aftermarket brushless motor and I use the 10x8 float prop so that carries these things quite well. I'm not sure how the stock brushed motor on the Super Cub will perform but I have heard it gets the job done. Hope this helps.

Die Wäre ist schnell und heile angekommen. Die Kufen ließen sich einfach an meinen Flieger montieren. Habe den Flieger sammt Kufen ausprobiert und kann mich nicht beschweren. 😀👍

I purchased these for my Super Cub RC plane and was going to use them on water. I found that they are great for the grass field that I have to fly in and work better for take offs and landings than even the extra large wheels that I put on the Cub.These are a must have if you own a Super Cub !!

A little wonky and the plastic plates should be bigger so that the metal suspension rods don’t squish the foam so easily. Fun addition to the plane, just wish it wasn’t so… flimsy
