Best Review on 2 Channel Super Sonic Control Airplane
My dad and I have a checkered history with RC planes - one has never lasted more than one flight with us. Last Christmas I bought this because it was super cheap (~$30 with shipping) so we wouldn't have to worry if we broke it. Turns out breaking it was never a problem. The wings on the plane are set up to automatically lift relative to the amount of thrust - so the only thing you have to fool with on the plane is the throttle. This makes it much easier to control the plane than with the more expensive models. Turning is also easy, as is landing. Since the plane flies itself somewhat with the automatic forward-motion=lift wings, landings are never hard (landings with an RC plane are what always killed our previous ones), and the foam body is actually pretty durable.
The plane is subject to wind obviously as it's so light, as well it does not like to get wet so don't land it in dew (the water will both mess with the electrics as well as weigh the plane down enough so as to make flying difficult). The flight time isn't long but is longer than ten minutes, and since you can charge from the radio control unit very quickly, is not limiting. Because the plane is very basic, it's not like you're going to spend hours flying this thing, but for fun family outings I'd highly recommend it. We gave it to my 4-year old niece to play with (with supervision) and she did fine. Have fun out there, this really is a fun little toy for the family.
When I bough this product it was what I was expecting. Also the shipping was faster then what they say it would be. I love the airplane.
BalasHapusi ordered this for my kid brother for christmas and he was very happy with his gift. if you know someone who is into flying planes this is a good gift idea
BalasHapusthis plane out of the box is weak. the battery isnt whats bad about charging. its the transmitter. i built a wall charger for mine and it takes 5-10 mins to fully charge and flies for abour 6-8mins. i removed the nose cone "after a nose dive by stalling and crushing the nose in" i pulled the foam back and on the bottom of the inside i hot glued a piece of foam for extra strength. it no longer crushes in. great fun plane!
