VOLANTEXRC RC Glider Plane Ranger600 Stunt 4 CH Remote Control Airplane RTF with 6-Axis Gyro & 3 Modes Easy to Fly, 2.4GHz Radio Controlled Aircraft for Beginners & Adults (White)

If your looking for a beginners plane for your kid or grand child look no further this is the one ! My grandson who just turned 12 was flying this thing in "beginners mode" like a champ the very first time. Granted he's experienced flying drones but this is a whole different animal. The plane is very light and sturdy. The motor is in the back instead of the nose so its protected from nose dives and busted propellers however he didn't nose dive once with the gyro stabilization which keeps the plane flying level and straight when your not turning, climbing or diving. It comes with 2 batteries and depending upon how you fly the battery can last longer or shorter because you can control the speed of the motor which besides saving battery life it also gives a beginner more control over the plane. You can fly slower and have more time to correct mistakes and learn. As you get better you can fly faster but of course that means using more battery power. It’s fun to get the plane up to 300 feet or so, cut the engine and let it glide back down nice and slow. The battery can last for about 15 to 20 minutes, again depending upon how fast you fly and for how long. The battery takes only about a half hr to charge. I bought 2 extra batteries and two extra charging cables so he can fly for over an hour and he can charge 3 out of the 4 batteries at once. The best time to fly is low wind conditions 5-7 mph or ideally no wind. This plane is extremely light so it doesn't take much wind to effect it. Early evening when the sun is going down the wind is usually dying down or some days when its over cast its calm all day. The day my grandson flew his for the first time the wind was about 5-7 mph and he did fine. We were on a 3 diamond baseball field surrounded by trees. He kept the plane lower to the ground so it was less effected by the wind. Later that day we went back at 6:00 pm when the wind was almost nonexistent and the plane flew much more smoothly and we could climb higher. Get this plane its fun for everybody !

Some pilots told me to get the RC plane to begin learning the controls and how everything works Well I chose the 400 Ranger to start. I fly drones and flying an airplane is very different you have to control it constantly so I did crash it a lot in the beginning but I started picking it up and it became very exciting And fun I would say that it’s more exciting than flying a drone 👍beginning with a drone kind a messed me up I had to retrain my self which I did with that little 400 ranger as a beginner after I learn pretty good with that plane which I still have ripped it apart but glued it back together and it still flies pretty good It was very fun to fly I am older and I never thought RC planes would be that much fun so I moved on to a mid intermediate plane which is the carbon cub S 2 with all the bells and whistle‘s if you’re deciding to get that little plane for a beginner I would say that is a great decision to start with then move on to the bigger style planes that fly much better after you learn your controls , I recommend getting the ready to fly version because I bought ready to fly and also bought bind and fly I’m still working on the binding and fly . The ready to fly come ready to go out of the box you just have to kind of put it together it don’t take too long . Now I am progressing up into expert Well kind of sort of still practicing every day and I am becoming very familiar with all the controls I would say that spektrum Remote with the smart battery technology is the best . Yeah you can find everything right here with Amazon some items are on back order because everyone is kind of getting into the sport because of the pandemic just be patient it will get too you Amazon is pretty good with deliveries I give Amazon a lot of credit with their easy ordering and everything comes in great condition so if you are thinking of getting into the RC hobby or trying to become a real pilot yes start off small than move up but make sure that the plane has the new smart technology and with the gyros for beginners it really keeps the plane flying real easy you will have a blast I am enjoying the RC planes a whole lot it is very exciting to fly and with all this Covid going around you can’t get out there in a very wide open space and fly around without worrying about anything. Flight is so much fun for myself it’s addicting just learn your remote and start off small that is a great plane to start with it has the gyros and three modes beginner or intermediate and expert start off with beginner or in immediate but don’t go in expert until you learn everything because it will flip over , do rolls , fly upside down do anything you want an expert but come down very fast also 😂

Really enjoying this. I fly in a space that's about the size of a soccer field and I find this plane's compact dimensions really work well for that. I've had 2 previous planes, but I've found the gyro included in this one really makes a big difference, I'm able to control the plane pretty easily. It flies well in a breeze, but I would hesitate to fly it in winds of 25km/h or more. I get flight times of about 15 mins, charging takes about 1.5 hrs, and 2 batteries comes in handy. Ran into some trees and had a crash landing but no damage yet, the plane is light so it can take a few hits. Very satisfied especially given the price.

flew into fence more than once, no damage at all. many crashes , still going. excellent beginners plane. LOVE the gyro feature.

Good little plane, flew well, then it seemed to get out of transmitter range and then it just flew off and we couldn't find it. How can they call this a beginner plane when there is no failsafe, which cuts the throttle when it gets out of the transmitters range. A very expensive 8 minutes of great fun.

This little plane was great! It flew well and performed tricks. The difficulty settings were very helpful on getting a handle on it. My son LOVED it, until he flew it very high and then lost it in the sunset. We spent three days looking for it but it's probably in a different hemisphere by now. We just ordered it again and we are hoping for more responsible ownership this time. That and I want to fly it too. I would recommend first time flyers practice on an rc simulator phone app before taking the actual plane out.

Dusted to pieces in 5 minutes after 2-nd not, as promised, smooth landing. What a waist of money! Similar toy aircraft for a 70 % lowrr price and very limited control capabilities last almost 2 years, no matter - summer or winter.
