Flying RC planes has become a very popular hobby in recent times. With more and more people take to fly radio controlled airplanes as a serious past time, you might find yourself in a very exciting company if you have also decided to take up the sport. Flying radio controlled or RC planes are not limited to only control a small toy with a remote control in his hand, but involves a lot of other aspects ranging from design and installation to fixing and flying RC airplanes. If you are planning to buy your first RC airplane, then some of the things you will need to consider before you pick it up is: The amount of Construction Required: All radio controlled areoplanes and Rc Helicopters are not in a form where you can take it out of the box and fly it. Rather, there are three main categories-Ready To Fly, almost ready to fly and Kit models, depending on how much work you will need to put into the machine before you can have it up and running. As a newcomer to radio controlled flying, do best with a Ready To Fly RC plane. But if you like do it yourself job, so you can choose a model that must be assembled from a kit or take an almost ready to fly one, depending on how much you like putting things together. RC level of The Machine: Rc Helicopters and airplanes are graded into two categories-class toy and hobby grades. Toy grade RC machines cost less, have less control, less connection to scaling, smaller features, endurance and speed compared to hobby RC aircraft rating. On the other hand, hobby grade models are more complex and offer more features, quality, performance, speed and strength. At the same time, they also cost a lot more than the toy grade RC machines. Choose your RC plane from the toy or hobby grade depending on your level of commitment to the sport of RC flying. Type RC Flying Machine: RC flying machines can be divided into three categories-RC airplane RC jets and Rc Helicopters. You might want to select a radio controlled airplanes as your first flying toy because RC jets are tougher to fly than airplanes. Radio controlled helicopters are not only the hardest to fly, but is often the most expensive of the lot as well. It is best to try to get your hands on a simple machine first and then on to the RC helicopters if you want. Power source: Rc Helicopters and airplanes operated by either gas or electricity from a battery. Although gas powered RC plane in general gives you more life, or even power and speed, using a battery-powered one is easier for beginners. Just like an ordinary toy, everything you need when running a battery-powered radio-controlled helicopter or aircraft is to charge the battery and you are ready to fly.
