RC Airplanes Online Guide

The hobby of RC airplanes is about fun. You can start with cheap electric remote control airplanes and then progress to the more advanced gas powered remote control airplanes. Ready to fly models are perfect for beginners...

Electric Remote Control Airplanes

Electric rc airplanes are best for beginners. Electric remote control airplanes are easy to use, simply charge the battery and fly. Flight time can be anywhere between 10 to 30 minutes per charge. Buy an extra battery pack and fly for over an hour!  Electric remote control airplanes are quiet, allowing you to play without neighbors complaining about the noise.  Electric remote control airplanes are less complicated than gas models, best for beginners.  Electric RC airplanes just need the following: RC airplane kit, electric motor, battery pack for electric motor, charger for the battery pack, radio control system and 12 AA sized batteries for the radio control system.  The best part is that most ready to fly rc airplanes come complete with all these items. Just charge the battery, find a clear field, and fly!

Gas Powered Remote Control Airplanes

Gas remote control airplanes are for more experience modelers and flyers. Gas remote control airplanes are faster, and fly longer than their electric counterpart.  Gas powered remote control airplanes are better than electric airplanes, because the small gas engines provides the sound and realism of flying a real engine. 

A flight simulator program is highly recommended.
