The Sky 500 Ultra Micro Glider is compact in size and a blast to fly. Perfect for large indoor flying spaces, or outside in low wind conditions. Built from crash-resistant EPO, and offering full 3ch control, this ultra micro is a great platform for both beginners and experienced pilots alike. Featuring a high efficiency motor and folding prop, you can achieve long flight times of 10 minutes or more on just a 3.7V 150mAh lipoly!
The Sky 500 is small and portable enough to take with you anywhere. It features a removable wing that attaches with high strength magnets. The box it comes in also doubles as transport for the airplane. The airplane packs neatly in the box along with all of the accessories for easy carrying.

Is this N160.1S.25T2 the good battery for this model? if not, which is the right one and please, tell me the also the right carger or wire to recharge it.
thank you one more time. Gianluca
good morning. does the transmitter of the Skysurfet EPO glider (NE30178124204) works with this model? (Sky 500 Ultra micro glider, NE3017872404) Thank you. Gianluca ,Italy
The standard transmitters only work for the type they came with. So fixed wing to fixed wing. And heli for heli. If you want one that does both. You must buy the j6 or eqevilant .
In the Nine Eagles world, heli and fixed wing Rx and Tx do NOT mix even though they may look exactly the same. I have the following with stock Tx's:
-sky eagle
-yak54
-p-47
-sky 300
Each of these fixed wing transmitters will bind with each of
the planes. I also have a Solo Pro V2 heli. It will bind with none of these plane transmitters nor will the heli Tx bind with the planes.
A possible exception is the J6 Tx which may work with both planes and helis. I cannot say for certain about this however.
Michael2 you have great News so you are happy also this listing says "Compatible Nine Eagles 2.4Ghz (required) (such as Nine Eagles J6 PRO)" so there is no problem. I hope this helps
For binding, (1) insert battery into the plane (red LED on RX). (2) Pulling the Throttle Stick down to Zero. (3) Depressing the Code Binding Button (integrated with the Throttle Switch. (4) Switch on the TX. After a short while, you can hear the homing sound from the servo. Done.
Had tried. NE024G for heli won't work though it is the same TX (NE024G) coming with Sky500. Beside, battery can be charged (one at a time) from the TX (same as the heli version). Suggest using the charger/adapter set NE4210902 (availbale at HK) that 2 batteries can be charged simultaneously via A/C.
Nice to see this little glider. Will HK bring it the Sky Climber too?

1st things 1st - I converted mine to 5gram HK BL and brick. that said.
This plane is a darling, a jewel... a diamond in the rough! It is the Perfect Outdoor RET Brick Brushless Micro Glider Conversion! (thats pretty specific but very desirable given its a tiny glider, an easy conversion, and availablity of cheap brick/brushless gear!)
It is just rigid enough to handle power. 2s100's provide better glide, flies so nice. I love the folding prop and sound of bl motor! Super easy conversion. Mount ARbrick; same location using same pushrods. install 5gram with round disc laying flat against foam tape fuse together no need to glue motor in!
If you have the brick/bl gear and skilled to wire up for <2s180 lipo - this plane is a must have in your micro collection! A True BL Micro Glider - very impressive performance and looks! I'll post flight video, to back up my talk, always do, so impressed with it. I tried other small glider conversions but this one I absolutely love! will probably order two more kits!!!
Recomendo este produto. o sky 500 voa perfeitamente, e é muito, muito, muito fácil controlar. é possível voar em locais com pouco espaço. é um aero muito leve. Pesa apenas 39 gramas. Consegue-se voar perfeitamente em dias com pouco vento. O único problema é o fato de o motor ser com escovas. Não sei quantos voos ele vai durar. Por enquanto foram 12 voos de pura diversão. a duração de cada voo depende do tipo de voo: voando calmamente plus-15 minutos. voos mais nervosos duram em média 6 minutos
