Cub upgrade possible

Post by Kilstorm »

I know its a pipe dream but since the B377 did get a redux of sorts with COTS, cant rule it out completely. Would love to have any of the GA MX stuff added to the Cub. Just redoing the oil check system and oil ageing would be great. The plane by itself with its accusim is amazing and a complete package but with the new way to change oil, age it, check and burn it in use...it would be a nice surprise to see that added.

I would also like the ability to repair individual items without having to overhaul. For example if there's a prop strike currently you have to overhaul the engine rather than just replace the prop.

Well that's actually what happens in RL after a prop strike too! The engine needs to be checked for shock loading and eventually needs to be overhauled.
