Congratulations on your purchase of the HobbyZone®
Super Cub Floats. These floats add a new level of fun and
excitement to your Super Cub.
Note: Only use the floats if you are comfortable flying your Super Cub
and have repeatedly and successfully taken off, flown and landed.
Flying off water poses a higher risk to the airplane because the
electronics can fail if immersed in water.
Crash damage is not covered
under the warranty.
Be sure to read the warranty
on page 16 and "Warnings and
Safety" on pages 14–15 before
you proceed to Step 1.

Step 1
Assembly
• Remove contents from the box
and inspect for missing parts or
any damage.
• Separate the eight 3mm x 10mm
Phillips head machine screws, the
spreader wires and the two landing
gear legs.
• Note that there is a right and left
float. The indentions in the foam for
the spreader wires and landing gear
will face inward.
• Install the landing gear with the wider
top portion into the front holes on the
floats. Next install the front spreader
wire into the second holes on the
floats. Install the rear spreader wire
into the third holes on the floats.
Finally, install the rear landing gear
legs with the narrower top portion into
the rear holes on the floats.

Installation
• Install the eight 3mm x 10mm Phillips
head machine screws into the
floats making sure the screws are
tightening against the flat spots on
the wires.
• Install 10 x 8 propeller included with
the float kit*. Do not use the 9 x 6
prop included with the airplane as
there will not be enough power to
successfully fly on floats.
* When using the 10 x 8 propeller, it is
essential that you allow approximately
10–15 minutes between flights in order
to allow the 480 motor to properly cool.
Failure to follow this warning will greatly
reduce motor life.
• Remove the landing gear and
landing gear covers from your
Super Cub.
• Insert the front landing (wider) gear
wire of the floats into the front
landing gear slot.
• Insert the rear landing gear wire into
the rear float mount in the fuselage.
Rear Float
Mount
• The Super Cub LP (blue Super Cub
with Li-polymer battery) comes with
the rear float mount pre-installed in
the fuselage. If you are attaching
your Super Cub floats to an original
red Super Cub (HBZ7100), a rear float
mount will have to be installed into
the fuselage. This is a separate part
that has been included with this float
set. Please see page 9 for installation
instructions.
