How much wind can the plane take? Does the weather have to be perfectly still?

Hello, this plane is cabable of handling `0 to 20 MPH winds, However, while you are learning, you will want to practice in much lower winds until you feel more comfortable with the plane.

This is a 40 size nitro plane it could be flown in 10-20 mile an hour winds.

If wind gusts are a problem I would set the turbine inside of a screen box so as to limit mother natures ability to whip the turbine. I believe it will handle up to 60 MPH winds if mounted properly.

I would only fly this plane in less that 5 mph wind preferably dead calm for best results. it is very light and gets moved aroud easily

I have flown it outdoors in bright sunlight with no problem. The forward speed is quite slow, so if there is any wind, you will not be able to make upwind progress meaning it will just fly away.

We just had a week of 15-25 degree days and it consistently blew about 80 degree air. Should be no freeze up as freeze up is from humidity.

The supercub is a good size plane. You wont have a problem with light winds.

For high winds you'll want different pegs (10-12") and additional support lines (there are enough places for you to tie on to on the fly sheet), but I would expect it to hold up fine. I was stuck in a light to moderate windy downpour, and stayed dry.

You don't want it to go to far, as it needs to be seen to be controlled. How long it stays airborne depends on weather conditions. I usually fly for about 10-12 minutes in calm air,but I have seen flights over 30 minutes if there are any air currents to lift the plane without using the electric motor.

I flew it once outside. But it doesn't take much more than breeze to make it hard to control and unstable.

I'd love to be able to answer that, but I sent it out of state for my grandson's birthday and never got to actually see him use it. I was told it did great in the house and was a nice product. He loved it! I don't know why it wouldn't be able to fly outside unless, of course, it was extremely windy. Wish I could be more help.

Usually your local weather web site will have it listed. If you want it for kite flying info in regard to this kite, it needs a fairly good wind, like enough to move tree branches but not blow the leaves off if you know what I mean. A noticeably windy day, but not one that blows your hat off.

It will fly well outdoors only in very calm to dead calm conditions. It is too light to penetrate any significant wind.

It can but it must be in little or no wind. It is very sensitive to air movement and the household vents can move it if flown too close.

It flies outdoors fine, you just have to be aware of the surroundings like trees, power lines and the one you can't see, the wind. so it doesn't take it away from your control

In a moderate wind, it'll become a sail. If you sandbag the legs, it might be ok for a light breeze. If it's breezy, it's best to have an assistant hold the reflector rather than put it on a stand.

Only if there is no wind.This summer it should be great!but,this time of year where I live is just to breezy.

Yes, it can be flown outdoors, but there must be NO wind. On the plus side, it is built well and survives many crashes due to the fact it can't fly in the wind. Or breeze. Or if you blow on it.
