Need a Plane
Hey guys im new to the site and wanted to get into the airplane hobby altho ive only ever raced gas cars and trucks, Ive been looking on bananahobby.com because my friend ordered from them and they were pretty good, i really like this place but dont really know anything about it and if its good or not? the video seemed real good i have to admit tho http://www.bananahobby.com/1773.html so if anyone has any suggestions to what plane i can get id like to know, also i dont want to spend over 250$ and im looking for a jet that flys real smooth so i can put a video camera on it thanks

Try this one. I have heard excellent things from it, and it has an excellent price. The plane that you first chose is a very difficult plane to fly and is not very forgiving in case of an accident. |

Re: Need a Plane
I think you might be in the wrong forum. Try:
http://www.rcgroups.com/aerial-photography-128/ Lots of advice there on using cameras with RC airplanes. Jets (both turbine and EDF) are generally not recommended for several reasons; speed, size, load lifting ability, and visual orientation for starters. |

Re: Need a Plane
Hi camreno,
If you are a beginner in the R/C aircraft flying, I strongly advise you to do not start with a jet, even if you have driven a R/C car.
Flying a R/C plane is really different to what you know with R/C cars. I recommend you to start with a high-wing aircraft, as Calmato of Kyosho. It is an ARF, and is also sold in electric version. And also, I advise you to sign-up in a club where a monitor can help you and can avoid you to crash your model and major disappointments. Best regards, JClaude |
