RC Plane for Beginners, 4CH WWII Warbird P-47 Thunderbolt with Aileron, 2.4Ghz RC Airplane with Xpilot Self Righting & One Key Aerobatic, Gifts for Adults (761-16 RTF)

I’m having lots of fun flying this little plane. Yes it is kinda small, the plane is about one foot square when looking down at it. A four channel plane, ailerons, elevator, rudder, and throttle controls for an aircraft this small is unusual. Then add a gyro to make it stable and easier to fly. Then add a stunt button, since the gyro is trying to stabilize the plane the stunt button makes it possible to still enjoy some loops and rolls. Even though it is cheating, it’s still very cool. I’m flying at the local school yard which is a soccer size field. This is enough, but a larger field is better, especially for beginners. All of my landings have pretty much been crash landings. Since I’m landing on grass, the wheels don’t roll, the grass just grabs the landing gear and the plane does a forward flip and lands upside down. I do bring it in as slow and low as I can and just cut the power when it touches down. No problem, this plane is so light, it doesn’t hurt with this kind of landing. No damage so far, after about a dozen flights, I’m still using the original propeller, which has popped off a couple of times on some rougher landings. The kit I bought came with two batteries and I’m getting about 15 to 20 minutes of flying from each battery for a total of 40 minutes of flying time. In addition this plane looks cool and much like the real P-51 and it’s a great value for what you get. Nothing bad to say about this kit, only a comment that it is small and it is light so best to fly with no wind or low wind. All said it’s a great little plane for so many reasons and at a great price. Pick one of these planes from this war bird series, buy it and go have some fun.

From 8 year old: This is my third RC jet and my favorite so far. Great for beginners and easy to fly. When it hits the ground the propeller pops off so it doesn’t break. Pretty durable. I hit a tree a couple of times and the wheel came off but I glued it with super glue. I can do barrel rolls, aerobatics, and take off on grass.

I grew up flying control line planes and always wanted to get into RC planes. I tried a few beginner planes 10 years ago and the results were catastrophic (destroying the plane in 30 seconds). I thought I would give the VolantrexRC plane a try given that it has built in stabilization. I have to say my expectations were low. Boy was I surprised! Plane (P-51) came ready to fly. I charged the supplied batteries and put 4 AAs in the transmitter and was ready to fly. I went to a football field with just a slight breeze. Put the plane in beginner mode and launched it. The plane flew beautifully, very easy to control and nice performance. Had a few hard landings, but the plane was pretty robust - the breakaway prop is awesome. The preprogramed aerobatics are very cool, just make sure you have some speed and are at a decent altitude. Recommend not installing the landing gear, slows the plane down and also snaps the mount if you do a hard landing. Just hand launch the plane with 70% throttle and you should be fine. Love this plane and cannot recommend it enough.

Been an avid R/C pilot for over 20 years. Was an AMA certified instructor flying nitro and electric small and large models. Don’t waist your money on this plane. Stability and control response is terrible. If you have never flown R/C you will crash this plane. Not recommended for new pilots.

Really good value for the price! Looks good & flies great!

This is a great little plane. I would not consider it a beginner plane. It does fly great in safe mode and is quite enjoyable.

Purchased 2 different models, flew around a few times. Began having issues with a remote controlling both planes. Went out to fly, one plane went crazy and when we tried to use the find plane feature the opposite plane began beeping. Unfortunately it is wrapped up as a $100 loss. Overall I enjoyed flying , high quality for the price.

This plane is excellent. For new/beginner pilots-DO NOT USE THE THREE BLADE PROP. It comes with 3 and 2 blade props. The three blade prop breaks every time. The two blade prop, on the other hand, survives quintillions of crashes. For beginners, this plane is great. The foam is SUPER durable and flexible. So far it’s survived at least 60 smash-downs and more than one roll over and over crash. Not only that, but it flew over a chain fence and the landing gear collided into it and the plane did a not-graceful dive into the ground. The prop save system is excellent, surviving several hard crashes straight into concrete. A tip is to use the right-side stick for turning, as the rudder is less effective. Wind resistance is superb. The only complaint is that the plane tends to be nose heavy during landings. Overall a great little plane! One last note-the rear wheels are not linked to the rudder, so it cannot really taxi. P. S This plane is not great for beginners, as the wings are under the plane, so the glide and slow-fly capabilities are lost. The airspeed needs to be fast to stay in the air.

for the price it does fly very well , it has 3 modes which was great for my son, the front propeller pops of on crashing and then pops straight back on. no hassle , I had only one downside one of the batteries won't charge , they aren't expensive , but I can feel like that should of been tested before being sent out , we got a solid half hour out of one battery which is fairly good. all in all I recommend this plane highly

Plane is very durable. Flew it into the side of a building by accident and it bounced right off and was back in the air after putting the propeller on. Extremely easy to fly for beginners.

These things usually break on me but it won't, batteries last for ages also awesome fun I love it. My 9 year old picked up flight with this plane in 10 minutes.

The plane is really easy to fly and handle. Batteries don’t last long so we are buying a couple more.

Good
