Hi all,
I have been looking at a UMX Carbon Cub as something I can fly during my work lunch breaks (Its under 100 grams flying weight, and is thus exempt from CASA reg's). Theres a pair of sport fields at work where I have flown before and plan to do so again.
Has anyone had any flying experience with one? I am hoping to use it to build up my hours much more rapidly then the occasional (and rare after this weekend until December) weekend flight opportunities I get. I am hoping that the gyros will allow me to fly in a wider range of conditions then an ordinary UM.
