More about the Freedom Flyer....
I chose the Freedom Flyer over the Firebird Commander because:
* Freedom Flyer has 3 channel controls. N0t 2 like most planes under $100
* Hobby Zone stick flyers (like the Firebirds and Aerobirds)are V-tail planes. Assuming that you or the end user wants to continue with the Hobby of flying RC planes, then a V-tail plane will
teach the pilot the incorrect method of flying. Simple enough, but how do
you make the plane dive or climb? The answer is that to make the plane climb, you add more throttle. To
Dive you let off of the throttle. The question you have to ask yourself is if the Firebird is in a strong
Dive towards to the Earth, how will you pull out before hitting the ground
and destroying the plane? The answer is that you have to speed up...Does
that make sense? Freedom Flyer has elevator controls to avoid such a horrible
accident.
* The Freedom flyer retails for $99 and comes with 2 wings, 2 tails, and 2 batteries and 3 props.
* The main wing on my plane has a added support of a wooden dowel so that
the pilot can perform loops, (Which can not be done with the Aerobird or the
Commander.)
The Freedom Flyer is not well known. Only cause the MFGR has not
sunk in the capital to advertise it yet. But its coming...
