As you know I´m always on the lookout for good content on RC RTF aeroplanes. Today, I ran across a very good article that talks about RC RTF aeroplanes from a different point of view. Make sure you check out this article and let me know what you

With more advancement in radio control and electronic technology more and more RC jets are becoming available for hobbyists today taking the hobby to another level. It’s a great thrill to see large scale RC jets in action. They are the pinnacle of the hobby and look and sound phenomenally realistic in the air, and a beautifully built scale model is quite a sight to watch in flight. To see them, even if only on display, they are still very impressive to look at if beautifully built.
If you’re a beginner or an intermediate flyer and buying a gas turbine is out of reach, you can always buy a two-stroke glow plug engine jet model. And if you don’t want the glow plug engine mess then you can even get one with an electric brushless motor called an electric ducted fan RC Jet or EDF jet, being a cleaner option.
Of course, you will lose some realism but all the flight characteristics will remain intact and the aircraft will behave more like a jet than an airplane. T he Hanger 9 F-22 Raptor PTS Trainer is a great “entry-level” example. This electric RC Jet is an RTF version and comes with the FS One RC Flight Simulator and is powered by the Evolution engine and controlled by the famous JR system of radios.
Electric RC Jet have a great advantage. They are not affected by wind because of their sheer speed and aerodynamics but need extra airspace due to that aspect. The only problem, however, is that they need more space for turns and aerobatic maneuvers, which brings us to another dilemma – that of losing sight of your plane! There will be times when you will not be able to see what your plane is doing, which increases the risk of disorientation!!
It’s a great idea to locate your local RC club as it has several advantages. One of t hem is that you will always find hobbyists willing to help you with anything you want – maybe even an instructor. Local RC clubs hold events under several categories such as gas powered and jet powered scale, pylon racing, etc. So it’s worth a try!
So, as you can see there are many options available to you if you want to get into RC jet flying. But flying these aircrafts requires a lot of skill, gained after much experience in flying other slower models, of which there are many to choose from. And if the adrenalin is getting the better of you it’s better to keep it in control as it is always better to work your way up to advanced RC airplanes rather than jumping into the deep end of Electric RC Jets or Gas ones with no or little training only ending in losing your prized expensive beautiful RC Jet on its first flight.
