What makes a good 3D aerobatic plane? While basic aerobatics such as a simple loop can be achieved on most RC airplanes, various distinct features separate a true aerobatic plane from the rest. In this blog, we look at five characteristics that all 3D aerobatic planes should have.

LiPo (Lithium Polymer) Vs NiMH (Nickel-Metal-Hydride): which one is better? If you asked this question 10 years ago you will find yourself in a deadlock. Heated debates on which was the superior battery was a recurring theme. However, today, LiPos are the de facto king when it comes to RC batteries. In this blog, we look at the differences between LiPo and NiMH batteries, and why LiPos are the superior choice.

Battery accessories are crucial when it comes to safety in your hobby, battery lifespan, battery versatility, and overall user experience and enjoyment. Here are 5 battery accessories that everyone (who is serious about the RC hobby) should be using:

LiPo (lithium polymer) batteries: one of the greatest innovations in the RC universe yet, somewhat confusing. What do the numbers mean on a LiPo? What does the "C" mean? What does the "S" stand for? In this blog, we will decipher the LiPo code together.

The RC hobby: a relatively old pursuit yet somewhat anonymous to the public eye - except for maybe the hefty price tag? In this blog, we look at what the RC hobby really is and how hobby-grade RCs differ from toy-grade RCs.

There are many reasons why your decals may lift. It may be a case of a rushed first-application. Or the paint and the adhesive on the decals are not a good match. It could even be attributed to environmental factors such as high humidity or flying in the rain. No matter what the reasons are, we can fix it.

When you learn math, you start with the numbers; for RC planes, you start with the parts. In this blog, we break down the major parts and control surfaces of an RC plane that will help you take to the skies in full throttle.

Your first beginner RC (radio-controlled) airplane can determine how long you’re into the hobby; so, choose wisely. While there is no “best” beginner RC plane out there, there are several key factors that could make or break the experience. Here are 5 things that will help you make the best decision.

When I first started flying RC I went through many motors. I’m sure that many of you would be familiar with this.

People have been flying model aircraft for almost as long as the first successful flight of the Wright Brothers. 

As technology became available, a smart chap strapped a noisy little internal combustion engine to the model and enjoyed and the trend caught on. Fast forward a few decades and land has become more scarce as the urban sprawl continued into rural areas.It’s one thing to come down and fly for a few hours and head home but those new neighbors live there and the novelty of model airplanes will wear off. This is the point where you start having trouble with neighbors, councils, and courts.
