SUPER SONIC
Mini Remote Control RC Airplane * RED *
Features: ready to fly, out of the box; molded-foam fuselage and wing with
durable tail boom; transmitter with built-in flight-pack charger; mini NiMH
battery pack; two extra propellers
"this cute model goes from box to ball field in less than 5 minutes.
It's also a stable flyer that's nearly indestructible. Everyone who
sees the Super Sonic wants to (and can!) fly it !!!
Crash-proof fun for anyone!!!
The smallest ready-to-fly RC plane yet, the Super Sonic is packed with
high-tech electronics and engineering innovation, yet is is quite simply the
easiest model to get into the air that I have seen. The Super Sonic is
ready to go, out of the box; you need only drop 8 alkaline batteries into
the transmitter, fast-charge the included flight pack and install it in the
model-from box to ball field in 5 minutes!
Power and control system
The Super Sonic uses small twin motors for power and steering.
At full power, both motors run at the same speed; when you input a turn, one
of the motors slows down. No moving control surfaces, no trimming;
what could be easier? Even folks who have never before held a transmitter
can fly the Super Sonic; when we were trying this out for the first time at
the gym, even the high school girls basketball team wanted to get in on the
action, and they had a blast flying the plane around the ball field without
any help.
Transmitter
The mini comfortable radio controller has a built-in field charger
and indication status lights for the AA batteries.
Charging
The fast-charger that's built into the transmitter offers and
fast-charge jack that charges the NiMH battery of the airplane in less than
3-5 minutes. This field-charging feature is extremely convenient, but
because it doesn't have a voltage cutoff or timer, you need to keep a close
watch on the battery you're charging. This is very important because
if the battery is connected to the charger too long, it becomes extremely
hot and could melt the wires or burn you. A good way to avoid this
entirely is to hold the battery while you're charging it so you can feel how
warm it gets. The battery should only be warm-not hot-to the touch.
The battery is very easy to install in the model; just plug it in,
snap the hatch back on, and you're ready to fly again. Remember,
though, that the model is "on" as soon as you plug the battery in, so it's
best not to do this until you're ready to fly and the transmitter has been
turned on.
The Super Sonic is truly a go-anywhere, fly-anytime RC plane, and its stable
flight characteristics make it an instant hit with everyone who flies it.

IN THE AIR, REVIEWS
The Super Sonic can easily fly within a baseball diamond, and it flies best
in little or no wind conditions. Although the model is extremely
durable, it is recommeded that you fly off a grassy field instead of a paved
area.
CLIMB PERFORMANCE: On a fully charged pack, the Super Sonic
climbs nicely at full throttle. Be sure to allow the plane to gain
some altitude before you initiate a turn because power decreases during
turning. To recover from a dive, just hit the throttle full speed.
FLIGHT STABILITY: With its elliptical wing and spot-on,
built-in center of gravity, the Super Sonic is one very stable model in
flight. If you over-bank it or begin to lose control, release the
controls; the plane will naturally right itself. It was designed for
easy, gently flying-not aerobatics-and it does this extremely well.
Descending spirals and spot landings are simple to do and a lot of fun with
the Super Sonic.
PILOT RECOMMENDATIONS: When the Super Sonic is at an altitude
you're comfortable with, use short control inputs to steer it and keep it at
altitude. You'll have better control and longer flight times.
And always bring an extra pack of AA alkaline cells along; the Super
Sonic is so much fun to fly that you can use up batteries quickly!
PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHT: Although the Super Sonic is a nice
flyer, its best highlight is the way it lands: even if it hits the ground
nose-first like a lawn dart, you need only pick it up, brush off any dirt
and toss it back into the air. In dozens of flights, our Super Sonic
never even got scratched. There's nothing better than a crash-proof
plane, and even better with the price we are offering!
