    Default Flying by the numbers

    Could I get some help from all you Carbon Cubdrivers out there....SS and EX owners? What performance settings and numbers have you found work best for you and your Carbon Cub?

    Downwind power setting
    Power reduction abeam the landing target
    Speeds on base and final for a 3-point
    Speeds on base and final for wheel landing
    Speed as you round out for a 3-point landing
    Speed as you level off for a wheel landing

    Pretty basic stuff, I know but just wondering what's working for you.
    Thanks

    Jim,

    I found this video helpful when I transitioned.

    Hey thanks Marcus. I saw these videos (landing and takeoffs) when they first came out and didn't get back to them till this morning. Really helpful. Already transcribed Randy's procedure for my flight this afternoon
