This
newly designed and released 3-CH R/C Airplane glider/plane kit has a extra large
42 inch (over 1 meter) wingspan and is RTF (ready to fly). It includes a motor,
two micro servos with control rods pre-attached, and receiver pre-installed.
The kit also includes a 3 Channel radio transmitter, a new powerful 8.4V 600m Ah
NiMh (nickel metal hydrade) battery flight pack, and charger. Basically this
kit has everything you need to fly the day you receive your package except for
the 8 AA batteries that you supply for the radio transmitter.
This aircraft operates as both a motorized glider and a plane. The huge
wingspan in combination with lightweight construction and the powerful 380
Mabuchi type motor provide terrific lift. Once airborne at high altitudes
simply use the variable speed control on the transmitter to adjust throttle
speed or simply turn it off completely glide and collapse the prop in flight for
maximum airborne flight time!
Key Feature :
-
Full 3 Channel capability with a variable speed throttle control
-
Digital proportional standardized radio control system.
-
Motor controller has a sensitive reaction, has a low voltage drop and strong
anti-interference.
-
Interchangeable crystals are available on 3 separate frequencies making for
trouble free competition or flights with pilots who have planes up
concurrently.
-
Newer high performance turbo 380 motor that uses low electric current while
maximizing power.
-
Easy for a beginner to operate because it is lightweight yet has a sturdy
construction.
-
Reversible rudder and elevator controls.
-
Battery: New and improved Ni-Mh (8.4V) for longer lasting flight time.
-
Neck-strap holder pre-installed on all radio transmitters.
-
Tow holes included under nose.
-
Excellent high altitude slow gliding/soaring. Extraordinarily stable to use as
a UAV (un-manned aerial vehicle). The plane can naturally take on the added
weight of a micro-camera with just minor adjustments to it's center of
gravity.
-
Excellent gliding function. By adjusting the speed of the motor to a lower
level of throttle, the prop will collapse in flight to reduce resistance and
maximize aero-dynamics.
The main and tail wings attach easily so you can just charge the Ni-Mh battery
flight pack and you are ready to fly within hours after you receive the
package. The battery pack will get you about 10-12 minutes of flight time
(more if you adjust the throttle down or off at high altitudes and start
gliding). The fuselage and tail boom is made of durable sturdy hard poly
plastic and the wings are made of light weight molded and coated reinforced
foam. The control rods are steel and are pre-attached to the servos so other
than attaching the wings and charging the battery you are ready to fly!
The plane operates on 3 channels: one channel operates the elevator, a second
channel operates the rudder and a third channel operates the throttle control
with a variable speed control knob.
Beginners shouldn't fly the 3-CH R/C Airplane in more than about 8 mph (13 kph)
of wind. However experienced pilots should be able to fly the plane with
confidence in 12-15 mph (19-24 kph) winds.
This plane is recommended for 14 years or older, as the thrust and power of the
turbo 380 motor will easily pull out of a weak grasp. Also, this plane needs
the full radius of it's 1600 foot (500 meter) distance of control. So the pilot
definitely will need some unobstructed, cleared land in which to fly.
