This $25 biplane is extremely maneuverable with a turning radius so small that you could fly it in your backyard. Yet its low cost and ease of flight makes it perfect for beginner fliers. Finally, it's just plain fun and addictive to fly. Find it here
Pro's
- Quickly and easily recovers from a stall by simply cutting throttle and letting go of the sticks. Beginners can also easily make sharp banked turns without stalling this airplane. Can easily be flown in small areas due to its small turning radius in the air, but also has great range for outdoor and high altitude flying.
- Can be quickly recharged in the field with its controller. Every 2 minutes of controller charging gives you about 1 minute of flight time.
- Ready to fly airplane with controller for $25!
- Does not require FAA registration.
Con's
- Requires a little fine tuning for best performance. I used a little mounting putty on the nose of the airplane to smooth its glide. The instruction manual also recommends bending the tailboom to adjust, but this is not a good idea (watch the video to see why ;)
