Review:
We have a winner! Having tried quite a few 'instant' radio controlled planes (as you can probably tell from these pages), I spotted and bought the Mini Biplane. The attraction was the high propeller position, to be honest, meaning that there was zero chance of getting the props bent on ground impact. This turned out to be a good call, but there were other benefits too - lots of them. Read on....
The first pleasant surprise was discovering that the throttle control was linear, rather than on/off - with the biplane, you can go from ticking over to full on and every setting in between. The second surprise was finding that the biplane has a Lithium-Polymer battery inside. In practice this means longer charge times (up to an hour or so) but, importantly, flight times of well over ten minutes - with sensitive throttle use and the occasional stop for re-launching, you can expect to fly the biplane for 30 minute sessions quite easily.
In use, the Mini Biplane flies as well as any 'simple' plane can (without elevons and ailerons). It's great fun, it doesn't require huge areas to fly in and the only caveat is not to fly it in winds of 5mph or more, otherwise you risk getting it blown away into trees.
Please note:
- Some assembly required
- Colour may vary. Selection of colour will be at random and we regret that requests cannot be accommodated.
- Recommended for ages 8+
