  • LOVE the colour scheme!

    also, where is the aerial, is it just tapped inside under the wing, or do you have it sticking out?

  • @mke15 The aerial is inside the fuslage.

  • where did you find an aluminum nose cone for the Apprentice? I'm looking for one and all the ones I've found are too big

  • @statiiic It came with the Turnigy motor. You should be able to find one at your local hobby store.

  • Do you think that this plane is good for someone that only has some experience on the simulators but never flown an rc plane?

  • @TheFlight17 Although the Apprentice is an easy flying plane to master, I would recommend the Hobby Zone Cub as a first plane. Its smaller, cheaper, and a great way to teach yourself. As you become more comfortable flying, you can mod the Cub with ailerons. The Apprentice would be a good choice if you are learning with someone who has experience and can help you. Just my 2 cents of course.

  • Eye ball it

  • how do you center the wing on the fuselage?just eyeball it or you have made your own marks?

  • what's kv in the motor rating? and how did you fit in 2.5" wheel in the nose gear strut? the stock nose gear rod is bent over the outer dia of nose wheel, I don't see how it would take larger dia wheel, unless nose gear is changed all together.

  • what are your colors done with, paint? or stickers?

  • @Icywolf44 apprentice

  • how recent is this model?

  • hi, im new to RC flying and im wondering whether i should get a e-flite beaver, e-flite apprentice or a park zone super cub. I want a good beginer plane to start out with and those are my choices

  • I bet it flys like a angry bear now lol, the three blade give it a lot of torque?

  • could you make a vid about how you did this? Thanks! :)
