Where are the instructions for my PDF plane? |
| |
All
the instructions for each kit are in the center of that plane's page.
For example, if you bought the F-117,
look at the center of the web page and you will see a link to the
instructions.
If you have any specific build questions you can email our PDF plan

What's the best beginner plane? |
| |
We
get this question alot and here is the best most cost effective
choices in our opinion:
Option A, READY TO FLY PACKAGE: Buy a $20
RC Flight Simulator and get your crashing over with!
A simulator is going to save you so much money in the long run.
We have a VIDEO
HERE on how this works so well.
Get the Wild
Hawk! It comes with everything you need and is the
best beginner plane we have ever seen. It can also be upgraded as
you get better!
OptionB,
BUILD YOUR OWN SCRATCH BUILD: We still highly recommend getting
the $20
RC Flight Simulator of course. Then try the free Extra
300 PDF plan build as well as a list of what it needs
on the page. We also highly recommend the GRAYSON
SUKHOI because its made out of invincible EPP foam,
comes with all the hardware, and a motor/ESC combo (You still have
to buy the radio, servos, prop separately).

planes see our

What electronics should I get for my plane? |
| |
If
you are buying one of our PDF Plan planes just scrooool down on that
page. There is a list of recommended items there.
If you are buying a ARF or RTF there should also be a list on the
page as well. Just scroll down and look close. If you still have questions
and need an answer right away, try asking the guys on our LIVE
CHAT. |

Will this motor/battery/servo work on my plane? |
| |
The
chances are "yes" that motor/batter/servo etc you have already
will "work" on your new plane... How well it will work is
another question. What I would recommend is 2 things:
A) If its a motor, make sure it can swing the right size prop and
has the correct kv for it. We explain this in our Power
Systems Ebook as well as our Beginner RC Video Classes:
Part
1 - Part
2.
B) I say try putting what you have on the plane first. If you don't
like the performance you can always upgrade later. |

How do I set up my radio for elevons, flaperons, spoilerons, etc? |
| |
Sorry,
there is no easy answer for this one! This very tricky the first time
and is hard to figure out but once you got it, its easy. We did some
classes on how to set up your radio and what the functions do:

How do I put a GYRO on my plane? |
| |
We
have done a few videos on this subject. Please see ALL OF THEM to
get an idea of how this works:
These are the GYROS
I use. See
this DIAGRAM
HERE! How
to set your gyros up VIDEO.

How did you do the smoke on the F-22
video? |
| |
We
coated the wingtips with aluminum duct tape. It was a one time thing
that did not go so well. We don't recommend it. We got the smoke bombs
form HERE
from Hobby-Lobby (we used the small ones).
Also, see the funny OUTAKE
VIDEO HERE of us trying to get this to work! |
