Beginner RC Float Planes

Can floats be added to the HobbyZone Super Cub RTF electric plane? If not is there an electric rc airplane with floats suitable for a beginner?

GWS float set
by: Pete

Hi,
I believe the GWS floats fit the Super Cub. You may need to do a bit of research on how to fit them because I don't think they are a direct fit, but they do work. Tower Hobbies has them, and they're cheap! http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXHCR6&P=SM
If you do it, post a photo! ;-)

Alternatively there are a couple of foam RTF float planes from Icon RC. I don't know how they are, but they look like fun!

Update: floats for HobbyZone Super Cub
by: Pete

HobbyZone have since released their li-po powered version of the Super Cub, and it has floats as an optional extra. See it here.
The floats (here) can also fit the original Super Cub too. You're in luck! :-)
