Default RE: looking for a plane.


ORIGINAL: casey_lamm

I have all but decided on the t-28. I like the looks, the reviews are stellar. I don't think it will be too much to handle. If I get bored, I will modify it with retracts, increase the throws... seems like a good plane.

Im used to 4 channels. I flew the cub of a friends last week and it just was kind of dull. I dont know what version of it he had or if he built it. It was just under powered and didnt do much.

im looking at getting some extra battery packs.

Keep the comments coming.
I bought an F18 hornet jet a week ago off hobby lobby website and its a fun plane! It can go fast, 100kph is what it says and from my experience flying it the last few days, it had to be going near 70mph easy especially downwind. It also looks really good! The only thing, the only thing about this plane is the short flight times and long charging times. It only flies for about 5min at a time which is lowsey and it takes over 2hrs to charge the battery. So I am one that needs to buy about 3 batteries and have them all charged by the time I get to the field. Anyway, you will definitely NOT get bored with this plane but whatever you do if you get it, buy at least 2 more batteries because after you fly it you are going to want more and waiting over 2hrs is painful.
