What is your hang up about the Aerobird, its like you get mad if anyone likes the plane? lol. It was my first plane. I think it is a great way to learn to fly. It is cheap and durable with three channels. Now I will agree that it probably isn't the best electric trainer. But, I think it is probabably just about one of the best electric trainers for the price.

I do think they are cheaply made and not the most dependable. But hell, for $150 bucks for a beginner plane that you most likely will toss aside and fly very little after you move on, it is a pretty good plane to learn on.

Also, I think the aerobird is difficult to fly. But why not learn on something that is difficult and sturdy and go to something that flies better and is less sturdy later. You can't go wrong.

I went form the aerobird to LT 40. The lt 40 is much easier to fly than the aerobird. This is why I learned to fly it immediately! And I didn't scrap the lt 40! And I didn't get an instructor or join a club like many people on here say is required for sucess!


Just my opinion. To each their own. But I don't know why you have to get your feathers in a ruffle everytime someone has something good to say about the aerobird. If you don't like it, your entitled to your opinion, but that doesn't mean that your opinion is correct.
