Hobbyzone Electric Rc Airplanes

If you’re buying your first rc airplane, you may want to consider getting a plane made by Hobbyzone. Most of the hobby shops I’ve visited carry their models and their relatively inexpensive compared to other manufacturers. Their cheapest plane, The Firebird Scout only cost $45.00 and from what I’ve heard, it flies pretty good.

I got my first plane from them. It was the Fire Bird Commander 2 and it cost $99.00. Their last two planes are the Aerobird Challenger and the Aerobird Xtreme. Both are capable of acrobatic maneuvers and sell for $110.00 and $190.00 respectively.

One of the coolest things about their planes is that you can buy additional accessories for them. One accessory they offer is called a drop module. It’s a paratrooper that attaches to the bottom of the airplane. While you’re in flight, theirs a button on the remote control that when pressed, releases the guy from the plane. His shoot opens and he comes gliding back down to the earth.

They also have bombs you can drop to practice hitting ground targets, but one of the neatest modules they offer is their aerial combat module. With it, you can engage in air warfare with another Hobbyzone airplane. It works by shooting out a sonic signal when you’re behind the plane you’re engaging temporarily shutting down your opponents engine.

The only complaint I have about their airplanes is they can’t be flown in windy conditions. This applies to most planes, but Hobbyzone planes in particular should only be flown when the wind speed is 5 mph or less. Any more and you’ll have a difficult time controlling their planes.

Nice RC Planes.Words cannot describe what one feels while flying an RC. The easiest planes to fly are typically ones that have a high wing, or a wing that is on top or above the plane's fuselage. Low wing planes offer a higher level of flying difficulty because the weight of the plane sits on top of the wing structure, making the balance a bit top heavy Get more Information .
