volantexrc RC Plane, 4CH Remote Control Airplane for Beginners & Adults | Sport Cub Trainer RTF, Prop Saver, 6-Axis Gyro Stabilizer, 3 Modes, Radio Controlled Aircraft, 500mm, Blue

This little plane is amazing for the price. 10 years ago this would have been crazy expensive, and this tech wasn't mature enough to be viable....they had tiny RC planes, but they were difficult to fly for your average pilot. The beginner mode and intermediate mode work very well and make flying this little plane a breeze. Any one who knows the basics of flying can fly in beginning mode. I flew it on expert for a little bit, to do some aerobatics, I don't recommend it unless you are VERY experienced. It was really squirrely in expert mode and can get out of hand in hurry, and the wind even a little bit can really mess you up. I have only flown this plane 3 times, once in my front yard, twice in my alley behind my house using the dirt road as a run way. It needs to have a smooth runway or it will nose over. The wheels are very small. I took it off in a track I made with my truck tire and that worked fine, but I wasn't precise enough to land it in the track for both flights back there and it nosed over on the landing from the bumpy road, it landed fine on the black top on the street in front of my house. The good news is NO Damage. I also dropped it from shoulder height while removing the battery, also no damage. The flight times are very long, I didn't notice any decrease in power before I landed and was up each time for several minutes, I didn't time it but it felt like I was flying for a while. Half throttle is more than enough power for normal flying, it still gains altitude even slightly below half throttle. To sum it all up, I highly recommend this plane to any one who knows the basics of flying RC.

I bought this plane last year. I've wanted once since I was a kid and finally got around to buying one. The gyroscopic stabilizer is great. Beginner is pretty fail proof, intermediate allows you to do some tricks and fly tighter turns while still being forgiving. Expert is hard, but I'm also no pro. The ailerons are a huge factor in making this great. A friend bought one without them and it's much less fun. Something to note, I have flyed a lot and gotten pretty good, but I have crashed mine probably 50 times flying in too small of an area in my backyard, a few at full speed. It held up very well and I was surprised how long it lasted before a crack. After many many head on collisions it did eventually crack the foam in the nose, but was easily repaired with some clear gorilla glue. Still flies great after the repair. If your more careful than me and fly in fields I would not be surprised if it never breaks. The prop is pretty durable and pops off if crashed. This is good since the prop won't break. The downside is it can be easy to loose them. I've debated spray painting one high visibility orange to make it easier to find.

Very disappointed. I have been flying RC airplanes for years now and have tried many different brands but never this one. At first glance it seemed very durable. On my very first flight it seemed like the ailerons did not work as it would not turn at all. There was no wind or anything so weather was not a factor. This resulted in the airplane crashing into a tree not only getting stuck but the propeller and wheels were lost. I was able to retrieve the airplane and contacted the company about this issue they have been unhelp and have not responded since I told them the issue I had. Overall very disappointed and would not recommend buying

I returned a similar looking red rc plane and got this one instead. Aircraft feels more sturdy and durable. POST MAIDEN FLIGHT UPDATE: -Fun to fly. Pretty easy -Wheels barely stay in place. Tail wheel worthless. Flew without wheels. -Cartwheeled and broke the first propeller. -Control surfaces might not respond the way you expect after takeoff. Beware. -Barrel roll loses altitude quickly. -nice 2s Batteries last around 15-20m each. Decent horsepower. -charging cable super flimsy. -Make sure you trim it out because the control surfaces will load off balance. Sometimes takes a few power off power on cycles to get level ailerons. I would recommend this plane, but would recommend the insurance, it will break after the 30 day return window. I broke a prop on the first flight with no wind.

This is the first RC plane I've ever owned and it is SO MUCH FUN!!!! There are 3 modes: Beginner (pull upper-right side switch towards you), Intermediate, and Advanced (push upper-right side switch away from you). Beginner mode makes jumping into this hobby a breeze. The stability control system keeps the plane steady and makes it extremely user friendly for ALL! I found myself in intermediate mode after 20 minutes in beginner. After another 2 hours and a couple crashes I am now operating in Advanced mode which is challenging. The stability system in this mode is turned off and so the flight controls are very responsive, making the plane incredibly acrobatic. This plane can take a beating! I've nosed dived into the ground, crashed into a tree, landed it in a swamp, and it's still going like new. Although I've had to reinforced parts of it with super glue and duct tape. It is so light and glides so well that the flight time between both batteries will easily last 45 minutes. And it charges in less than an hour! I can't recommend this enough. Right out of the box you'll be flying this thing in a matter of minutes. UPDATE (7/25/20) Just nosed dived into the sandy part of a baseball field and the nose snapped right off but all the flight controls and throttle are still operable! I’ve been repairing the aircraft with epoxy resin and have experienced no degradation in flight performance. MUST HAVE!!!!

Even though this plane is made of styrofoam, it's pretty durable! My dad bought one of these and on his first flight crashed it into a light post, and it didn't take much damage at all. Later on, he found he was losing control of his plane when he flew it, possibly something wrong with the electronics. But he sent it back and got a replacement at no charge! The different flight modes make this much more fun and easy to fly than it would be otherwise. This plane takes off within just a few feet and climbs great. The expert mode is really fun, although I generally only use it when the plane is at least 100 feet in the air. I often lose control in expert mode since I'm not too experienced, so this plane should have crashed dozens of times if it weren't for the different difficulty modes. I simply switch back to beginner mode and it straightens out of its tailspin or nose dive or whatever, which makes me more comfortable trying out complex aerobatics and risky maneuvers (as long as the plane is high enough). Anyway, this is an absolute joy to fly and has really helped break the monotony of quarantine. My dad and I often fly together. We make sure we pair our planes when they're both on the ground, though. Every once in a while, one controller pairs to both planes, so we always make sure our controllers are paired to the correct planes before taking off. I would recommend this plane to anyone!

My son and I both really enjoy this plane. It has unbelieve able flight duration for the battery size. Also Lots of power ,and flight Modes for Dad and Son alike. We live in an open area with lots of wind and we can fly just fine. We enjoy hovering against the wind and picking it out of mid air. I have larger planes, but for an after supper fly in the back yard, this one can't be beat. Ours is banged up because of too many near ground stunts. I take full responsibility . We will get another one. A cheap, enjoyable hobby. Get one. Have some Dad and Son time.

Purchased for 10 yo son who flies pretty well. Used in dedicated RC field. Unbelievably frail and not easily repaired. Bought another larger and more robust yellow cub, which was great. Purchased replacement props for this thing that took forever to receive and then motor throttle servo failed too. Junk.
