Bought this for my first plane. Was a little tricky for beginner. First off the wing spar was way too tight, had to heat it together. Ailerons were backwards and I didn't realize until test flight (snapped fuselodge in half). Decals flake off, hinges crack so use tape, transmitter is garbage. Gimbles ended up sticking. It does fly great has good power and glides nice too

Great beginner plane

Jan 30, 2017

This plane is great for beginners. I´m totally new in this hobby, but this plane makes it easy to learn! Great! If you want, you can check my second flight in the video: https://youtu.be/U4E0d9SPSR4

Great 1st Plane

Nov 22, 2016

Great Plane for beginner, very stable flights , Lots of power and get around 20 minute flight times on a 2200mah 3s 25c Battery, landings are supper easy, glides great, mostly fly with out landing gear and belly land, rtf had some radio issues (losing signal) with the HK-T6a v2 so now use a different radio, all in all a great plane for the price

Really nice "begginers kit". Model flies very stable. Unlike AXN Floater, takes off straight from hand . Floater tends to descend when leting it go from hand. Bixler takes off more like a glider. Easy on field assembly. Landing gear is useless on grass, although I managed to take off from wet grass runway once.

Very gentle trainer, required a little nose down trim when not loaded with fpv gear. Order glue as this us not included in the kit. I would also recommend servo extender wire for easer removal of the wing, order two if also using flaps.

After spending $150 and had my daughter full of energy to see her first RC plane flying, it turned out that the aileron servo needs to be reverse. The problem is you required a special cable that hobby king don't supply with the plane. Also its suppouse to be a trainer and RTF plane...

Whats going on HOBBYKING????? What I need to do now???

I'm glad it was not a Christmas present...
