2CH DIY RC Predator Aircraft

Not to hard to put together. Made out of foam but looks nice. Easy to dharge. First day out it was a little too windy so it was hard to fly, second day it was calm and much easier, It's a basic RC plane and a good starter.

Experienced r/c flier, got this as a simple entry plane for my son. Tried to fly it on a day with no wind. Hand launched it, it flew a few yards and then started to drop. There's no elevator control so it's supposed to have a slight tendency to climb so that when you need to ascend you apply power and when you want to descend you throttle back. This plane, however, doesn't have the power it needs to climb. The instructions advise bending the fuselage a bit to put the v tail into the wind/prop wash if you are having this problem. Tried this multiple times with increasing amounts of bend trying not to get to the point where it just noses up and stalls out. Nothing helped. It's just too underpowered to climb. Just buy something else.

This is my first RC plane, I bought for me and my 7 year brother. At first it's a little tricky to get the hang of but after a few minutes you can learn to keep the orintation of the aircraft/controls. I crashed it quite a few times into trees a roof once or twice, hard landing on the nose cone on asphault that took a little chunk of the foam out. Somehow the wing got a crack in it that I was able to repair with superglue and some scotch tape... still flys great. I did have to reglue the front weight at the bottom of the nose cone that got knock out due to a hard landing. But overall I would say this is a durable flyer, the props are the originals (comes with two spares) and it still flys great. It's kind of hard for my 7 year old brother to fly it, but he still has some good flights. I would recommend this to any first time flyers. Tips: stay out of the wind [edit] wait for a nice still day or evening... Don't fly it over asphault or near structures when first learning, try to stick to grassy areas if possible. UPDATE: After many flights the winds took this away into the woods and it went missing. Probably should only be flown in low winds.

Flew alright, its missing an elevator and aileron control so there is no rolling flight or pitching up or down. The flying is controlled by the two power outputs of the engine so it does not respond very well.

It’s a fun plane for beginners but when you fly it make sure there is no wind it’s very hard to control when it windy

Well, I tried too many takeoffs ,apparently the planes battery was low and the next takeoff the the plane took off and wouldn’t let me control It. We watched it circling about 1/8 mile or more above the trees on the neighbors. I though it may have crashed in the trees . Well ,about two months later the neighbor was brush hogging pasture field and saw something , a little RC plane . My brother retrieved it , cleaned it up, charged the battery, did some adjusting and flew it. Do you wonder how many times it was rained on dewed on ? She takes a licking and keeps On ticking. Good reliable durable plane . Keep the battery charged !!! Thank You Alby

DO NOT BUY IT IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY! THE FOAM IS NOT TOO BAD, Kinda fun (when you master it), TURNS LIKE AN AIRCRAFT CARRIER, UNCONTROLLABLE, BREAKS EASILY, LOVES TO GET STUCK IN TREES, STALLS EASILY, bounces like nuts when trying to land it (FedEx flight 14 moment). I would not recommend flying it within a 30-mile radius of a tree, but it ships quickly. The battery is mediocre, but it's not worth the money. I'd rather buy an RC plane from another company within Amazon, or I'd buy one off of "Temu," or AliExpress, rather than this. Sorry, Amazon, but I'm giving it TWO STARS because it was okay and shipped quickly, but the quality was poor.

Horrible design, looks like plane has attachment point for aileron but absolutely did not come with servo nor aileron attached to the plane. Hand launch and ground takeoff result in immediate nosedive. Not happy at all with this design. Have tried everything we know how not to have the plane immediately nosedive to no avail and I have a very disappointed 10 year old.
