Super Cub: Now Available

(Mods please do not erase this thread!)

The Super Cub is now available, via easy, quick and secure purchase at the store here:
http://www.flight-replicas.com/SuperCub_basepage.htm

Assuming you like what you see, once you've made your purchase, you'll receive two emails: one with your order information, and one with the download link. If you only receive one, check your spam or junk mail inboxes.

For those for whom download size is important (in case one time of day is better than another, or for bandwidth issues), the package sizes are as follows:
Complete Package: 429 Mb
Extreme: 164 mb
Standard: 205 Mb
Classic: 132 Mb
IFR: 46 Mb
To fully enjoy (and understand) the Super Cubs, you really need to read the Manual first. The Manual also has hints for FSX setup in case that's important for your rig. For those who just can't wait and will jump in straight away, here are a couple of pointers to get you past the first few minutes:
- If it's a knob, or the gear or flap lever, you will probably need to use the mousewheel. Clicking alone will not work.
- The flaps are powerful - be prepared.

Want a rifle? Read the manual. :)

I hope you like.

Its fantastic - great value and so much fun - and well done for making it so frame rate friendly

Best release this year!! (and best super cub in FSX history IMO) :salute:


PS - who is the attractive passenger modeled on?

I took the leap and purchased the full package tonight. Great models and Cockpits, but somehow I find the speed a tad off. It can`t be normal to fly the Super Cub on 40-50% throttle and still struggle with getting into the yellow range in level flight. No chance of overheating the engine this way. :jump:

Wonderful Project Mike :applause:

You did not disappoint :wavey:

Got the complete Package and i'm taking a short flight in each to enjoy :jump:
their differences.

gonna be abit :running:

Hi Bjørn,

At 75% power (approx 2300 rpm) you should find yourself at or just below 100 mph.

Landed somewhere in Tongass Fjords, and floated untill I gently hit the shore.
Just hope I didn't damage the floats.
It's a very nice package. I guess I'll start reading the manual now.

Cheers, R.
 
Bought it...flying it...loving it. This is an incredible FSX Super Cub. I've been making do with the Aerosoft PA-18, also a great product but for FS9.
I haven't read the whole manual, so this may be answered in it. Check New World Mailer on Catalogue AU.I have not been able to check the fuel levels in the gauges. Can't see any level in the glass. Anyone else have this problem?
And yes, careful with those flaps!!
 
I know I'm doing this backwards :icon_lol:, but I haven't flown it yet. I've only read the manual. Thanks for all the effort you put into a really great manual, Mike!! Much appreciated. :medals:

cheers,
steve :wavey:

You won't see any level until you've used up a quarter of your fuel or so, and then you'll see the fuel-lever indicator balls floating in the tubes. Then you'll have a clearer idea of how much fuel you have left. When the tanks are full, the balls are hidden up at the top end of those tubes.

You will not be able to see the ball floats until some of the fuel is exhausted...or you can go into the fuel and payload dialog and change the fuel to half full to see them.

Mike beat me to it.
 
I posted in the thread below but thought you might want to keep everything in one thread. Here is my question: Any chance you could list exactly what won't work with SP2 ?

Thanks
 
This looks great no matter what the light - more you look the more detail you see

I'm not sure of everything that doesn't function properly, and it doesn't appear constatant across the board, but as far as I know from testing on the Super Cubs the door open/close clickspots function only as one door (so clicking one door can sometime make both work together), and turning on the radio power button can turn off the master battery switch.

Hope that helps!

Mike
 
Wow Gajit,
Nice shot! I am still downloading, thanks to the slooooow speed here.
Can't wait to fly her.
Thanks Mike in advance :salute:

Thanks for the info. Very nice looking product! :ernae:
 
You don't know how happy you've made me! I've been wanting a Cubcrafters for a long time. Then I got to fly the L-21 which is almost a perfect match of Shaun Lunts that he stalled and crashed, killing himself in the process looking at whale remains on a beach up in Alsaka. If you would like to check out his web page which his parents have kept up, here is the link.

There are tones of Alaska & Super Cub photos, as well as a small video of shown showing off the stuff he packed in the aircraft for servival in the wilderness of Alaska...
While its not a bad set of aircraft, I just uninstalled my FSAddon Cubs!
Thanks for all your efforts, well worth every dime! Robin:applause::jump::bump:
