Hi all,
I'm RCPlaneGuide. New to this forum!
This is my 1st Article post--RC Jet Plane Talk. If somebody has great experience on flying, building and buying RC jets, please share your experiences with the RC plane, jet lovers here.
Flying RC Jets is not an easy task. Since RC jets are very fast, novice flyers should not get into this sport without first acquiring some experience flying propeller driven RC planes or using an instructor. If you are a beginner and want to fly a jet, you should go for the slowest pusher jet.
Usually, a sleek fighter or WW II jet is the first plane that a beginner will learn towards, but… take it from us, or you will crash and burn on your first flight, particularly when you are going it alone without an instructor. So beginner should stick with the proven and best way of learning to fly, and that's something along the lines of a GWS Slow Stick ARF ParkFlyer or Cessna trainer.
It will be a sad event when beginning RC pilots fly their ducted fan planes into the ground and totally destroying it on the first flight, and it can be really expensive too. This is why beginners should only learn to fly using the proper trainer. They should master the basics of flying using a much slower propeller RC plane.
How many and Which Type of RC Jet? There are 3 types of RC jets!
Pusher jets (beginner's best choice) - Ducted fan RC jets, and Turbine powered jets which has been making waves in the RC world recently, at the top end of the RC hobby. Some of the Ducted fan RC jets, such as the F16 Fighting Falcon. Duct fan electric RC jet uses a small high RPM muti-bladed fan engine that operates in an internal duct, which can deliver huge power (20,000 RPM or more). And our new remote control SU-30 Fighter Jet was designed based on the real SU-30 Fighter Jet. It was built with a great attention to the detail of its big brothers appearance and performance. And, Megatech A7 Tornado 2 Channel RTF Electric Ducted Fan-Jet is another great most popular model.
With its ultra low-drag stator-blade fan-jet design, it silently reaches speeds of up to 25 mph! Because of it's high-lift swept wing, this true ducted fan technology jet stays on course and is easy to land .If you interested in large giant jet with a wingspan over 55 inches and a length close to 3 feet, Estes Sky Rangers Air Force Two VIP R/C Jet (Powered by 2 electric ducted fan engines) is the one you should check out!
To drive the jet really really fast. You should check out the F-86F Sabre jet model as well.
Pusher jet is beginner's best choice such as the E-Flite ElectraJet EP Super Combo or the Megatech Megastealth have a propeller in the rear of the plane which pushes it through the air, and it is much slower than the ducted fan jet. And the SU-27 Airforce electric RC Jet Plane is another good one worth a look. It comes 99% pre-assembled. Ready to fly right out of the box. Easy to master giving you a new feel.
Turbine powered RC jets have a propulsion system in the back ,these types of jet RC airplanes are just like real jets, they are at the top end and can go very very fast (some as fast as 300+ MPH),plus they burn jet fuel, and also much more expensive.
I suggest beginner should start with slow pusher jet model even you have a little bit experience with propeller driven airplanes, because you will have more time to react to any of the problems that may arise. Of couse, with an instructor, you can basically learn to fly just about any kind of model planes.
