I am going to buy from Bananahobby just because of this video! My son wants to get into RC and this video explained so much that now I feel comfortable getting in to it. Thanks.
My two sons, ages 11 and 9, and I, we're newbies to the RC hobby world. Have to say that I was disappointed with my older boy's mini wing dragon as the two screws which fasten the tail assembly are WAY TOO SHORT! I emailed banana hobby.com but have heard nothing back. Getting more discouraged from all the complaints about this retailer I'm reading online. My younger boy got a Traxxas Slash 4x2 and he's making his brother jealous. Next time I will go to a local retailer even if higher prices
seems the price is a bit high. the firebird commander from hobbyzone is a better buy for less than $80 with options for sonic combat, aerial drop, etc...
Hey you said that it can also run on 1000 mah 7.4 volts lipo which is $6 on bananahobby website but when we choose to have an extra battery which is opt. You ask for $25 whats the matter????
How much is it I'm new to rc I'm getting a rc car but im going a long range flight by car plane and boat I want to buy my plane from bananahobby it rocks but I never had a rc car or plane
Have bought heaps through BH and always have excellent service!!! Thank you for your excellent turn around and really good delivery time to Sydney, Australia. Keep up the great work and thoroughly enjoy your vids as well.
Ok, just took this piece of junk for a maiden flight, doesn't fly. Not enough power to get it off the ground and loves to take nose dives. Save you money and don't buy this lump.
Looks great online and Pete for sure knows how to fly it. I just got mine and it's very cheap plastic, the electronics are scattered everywhere, difficult to wire the wings as the cords are way to short, only comes with an 800mah which is about 4-5 minutes fly time, body is bent, wheels don't attach as the screws are not the correct size, have to apply decals yourself, radio and receiver are very cheap. Not for the beginner, will get frustrated quickly.
It flies great. Its underpowered but flies incredible even in strong winds. It's nose heavy so instead of balancing I use nose up sub trim. It can really take a beating. Haven't flown it 3 ch yet but that's definitely a great feature...
Don't know why people can not refrain from personal insults. Pete sells airplanes by flying them. If you don't like the product make an informed critique but keep the childish stuff away from here please..
So I went to order this and they won’t have stock till mid Aug. I wanted to order the other beginner plane he recommends and they won’t have the brushless engine till mid Aug. C'mon guys I'm trying to give u my money. Work with me. When are these beginner planes going to hit ur shelf?
That's not the perfect all around aircraft ever made! (well you asked) It does look like a great beginer plane and I love the addition of another sportier wing for 4ch, although it does look a little underpowered.
You have to be kidding me? 129 bucks for this little thing? I could make it with my pocket knife and some sand paper. Not worth more than 60 bucks tops. Gotta get the prices down.
@MinfangDuan Do the math dude..ESC and motor combo 20 bucks Radio 20 bucks or use your old one .Foam board foam with the paper removed 1 buck battery 10 bucks. carbon rod 3 bucks .You can make this for under 60 bucks.
@lewandlo to be honest.. yes.. it's a little pricey. I know the Radio and a lipo is included but comon. I'm a BH fan but this needs to be lowered down a bit. and an option without a radio would be better because if you wanna start into rc the first tip you get is about getting a good radio. my 2cents
"Very stable and handles well".... yet every single second in the air was at 100% throttle... no cruising or displaying the characteristics of the plane.
"Great for beginners"....yet it was always some kind of aerobatics or low-level speed pass.
Hey Pete this is a great plane you guys have created and should be an example of how a trainer should be, it starts off like a bike with training wheels (no ailerons) and then you take them off (put on ailerons) and your on your way to this hobby! Thanks Guys
my honest upinion is that si flys to fast to be a good trainer. it needs to fly much slower to allow for mistakes new flyers make. plus looking at the take off it looks a little underpowered for todays power systems. just my thoughts
lol you can buy the bixler, RTF for like $30 cheaper, plus it takes 3s not 2s lol

Is the plane under powered? It seemed like it on take offs and i sounded like it was at full throttle most of the time
