Freedom Flyer
I finally went over to my local hobby shop for the first time which said to carry alot of airplanes ( i live in NYC, we only have like 3 hobby shops). The manager recommended the Freedom Flyer from Megatech. He said the radio is excellent and i can use it for a long time. He even said that he has seen many people fly this airplane without any help for the first time. I just want to confirm this with you flyers and see what your points of view are.
Thanks

RE: Freedom Flyer
My suggestion..if its megatech..and your a 1st time flyer..dont buy it..and if you bought it..take it back...take a look at sky scooter pro 2..at hobby people .net...on sale now for $139 for everything neeeded to fly..and its an rtf,,that takes about 15 minutes to put together...no glue needed...

RE: Freedom Flyer
What about the Wattage Cessna RTF, at 150.00 looks like really nice plane to begin with on solo.
Please ASAP, beacuse soon im goin to the local hobbyy shop with my dad, and i dont want to make a mistake. The manager keeps saying its best plane on the market, but i think hes just desperate to sell it
Thanks
and please respond ASAP

RE: Freedom Flyer
Definitely not a good training airplane. I own one and I can tell you that when it worked, it flew very fast. Stay slow when you are learning!
Most of the time, however, it doesn't fly well. I haven't figured if the thrust angle has changed because of a minor crash or if the motor isn't revving at full RPM's.
Stick to a model that everyone else is flying and you will be able to get plenty of free and informative advice.
