Title: Starter Electric Plane
Description: What is best one/type??

Interested in giving ele powered rc planes a go. :yes:

Want one for flying outside and can take some little wind. Maybe like up to five mph.

Can allready fly regular engine powered planes :plane_crash:, but new to electrics.

Maybe something with little better motor than I see on most of them at shops and online. Also want fairly good flight time, 7/8 minutes plus.

What is recomended for a starter and the second type to move on up to later.

Thanks in advance for any/all help.

A good starter plane would be a Firebird commander=$84.99
The next up from that would be a Aerobird challenger=$109.99
The next up from that would be a Aerobird Challenger 2nd edition I guess you would call. It is a bigger than the Aerobird challenge but is $159.99

Thanks for that information Justin.

I have seen those particular ones, but think that i want little better idems. :rolleyes:

More fully controlled and not so toy like. :bigplane:

I have regular radios, but understand the need for small/light componates for going in electric powered plane.

Want regular servo controlled elevator, rudder/ailerons, and know that throttle will be controlled by electronic speed controller.

Also don't mind doing some building or assembly of already covered/finished parts.

Thanks again.
