i am new to the RC airplanes. Ok i just got this New EDF its the Exceed F4 phantom. i got a sim to practice on. but my question is lets say i crash. I havent yet but how hard is it to repair if i break the fuselage or tail. are the motors an servos, an all that stuff pretty easy to remove an attach it to the new body or is a pain to do.

Here it is it has a list of parts of i can get from this site too for is aircraft.

If you're new to RC planes, you better buy 5 or 6 of those.

That is NOT a plane that you should start out with. If you do, you can expect your crashes to do a LOT of damage and need a LOT of repair.

And don't worry about taking the servos out - they'll fly out in the crash.

I don't mean to be harsh, but I'm telling it like it is. You need to start out with something a lot tamer than an F-4 if you want to succeed

Ditto what Minnflyer said.

I've put together a list of planes that make good trainers and second planes. All of them on the list are proven planes that are well suited for successfully letting students learn to fly, or advance to a second plane. Check out the list here

Hope this helps

You bought that ? It says they are sold out. You must have bought the last one, huh ?

These guys are giving you very very good advice.....Please don't let the common skill you see at the flying field lead you to think there isn't a learning curve to flying RC, that is best learned with an instructor on a gentle slow airplane. I was talking with a full scale pilot of a Pitts special who also happens to be an RC pilot. He said he thought flying RC was harder than full scale.....
Any way I truly wish you the best of luck....Good flyin to ya

Great advice so far. To answer you original question (sort of), with a foam plane that flies this fast, most crashes will be pretty devastating. Some of the gear may survive, but fixing the airframe and having it fly like new will be difficult. You also have to worry about the servos being stripped and the receiver and LiPo being damaged.

This is a cool looking plane, but it is going to be very hard to control, and very hard to see in the air. It's small size, high speed, and bland color scheme will all work against you in the air.

If it were a $40 plane, it would be a good lesson to try and fly it and crash, but at this price, you really want it to last for more than one flight.

Good luck
