I give 4 stars Value because for the price, you get a good beginer plane with all needed to start flying .

But quality is not as good as it have to be .
My Bix3 engine is doing a lot of noise and vibration since his third flight .
Hobbyking is not offering me a good solution (they say to send engine, and wait his evaluation and wait more for stock, and wait wait....etc..etc..)
I finally get another engine...because i dont want to stall my plane in the air with the original motor vibrations.
I have done a video showing noise, but nothing matters for hobbyking .

Plastic clips for alerons, rudder, etc.. dont close. I have to apply heat shrink tubing for fix (yes, i dont want to loose control in flight) .

Some parts are not very fine glued.
In first flight i loose landing gears in the air, because plastic was not glued correctly .

Hobbyking, if you send a Plane Ready to Fly, it has to be just READY TO FLY .

After a long absence from the hobby, I needed a 'refresher plane', and didn't have too much money to spend. Knowing that there are some iffy items out there, I bought the Bixler 3, and was astounded by the quality of the product, the tolerance of the friction fits and other components. The density of the foam is not as low as some previously bought planes from H/K, and she flew perfectly out of the box.

History repeated itself as I wrapped it around a rugby post, but unlike the Easy Star, the only thing that broke was the motor column. She's back in the air and rearing to go, with no ill effects.

It is now the staple training plane that I use for nieces and nephews, and one that I recommend for those learning to fly. Robust, good quality and easy to use.
