Electric airplane progression



More examples of popular electric RC airplanes
The variety of electric powered planes available is vast and growing all the time. It's very easy to become overwhelmed by the choice (my eBook makes choosing easy!), but shown below are a few recommended examples of popular Ready To Fly electric rc airplanes...



The Firebird Freedom, from HobbyZone, is a very different style of airplane with a distinct pod-and-boom design. The Firebird range is a popular one with beginners to the hobby.



This J3 Cub is a very popular scale subject and it's gentle flying characteristics and stability make it perfect for beginners.




This attractive Super Decathlon makes a great 3 channel aerobatic trainer, its brushless motor and Li-Po power giving it excellent performance, yet the high wing design giving it the stability needed by beginner pilots.




This Ambassador, from Megatech, follows on from the successful Freedom Flyer but features a powerful outrunner brushless motor and Li-Po battery pack. A great 4 channel trainer and suitable as an all-round electric rc 'sport' flyer.
This E-flite Apprentice 15e took electric rc trainers into a new age, being the first such RTF trainer to be sold with 2.4GHz rc technology. A very popular choice with new rc pilots looking to get serious from day one.




This scale ME Bf109G is a low-wing faster electric airplane, modeled on the famous WWII German warbird. A great plane for when you've got a few hours under your belt, these ParkZone warbirds are excellent planes. This Messerschmitt isn't available as RTF though.
