Hi Corsair flyers, I have been flying my Radian glider for a while now and thinking of moving on to a fixed wing plane fro Parkzone. I can land the Radian on it belly and feel confortable in flight. Would you say it's the next step up?

Thanks I will have a good read now.

Hi all, I have a Parkzone Radian motor glider which I love flying. At 1st I had a few hard landings and damage but now Im flying fine and landing without damage (figures crossed). I have been using the motor a bit more praticing go arounds and climbs and its got me thinking about buying an electric plane. I have seen the various Parkzone models and one that I am think of is the Spitfire. Would this be a good idea for someone who feels confurdent with his flying from a motor glider? Can anyone help?

Hi all, I am new to the fixed wing flying and at the moment I have a motor glider (Parkzone Radian) which I fly in the nears park or farmers field. I have seen a few things on insurance and was wondering what the score is and if someone can help explaining it to me? Cheers Si.

Keeping the reason to buy a Blade CX2
Simon Robinson replied to Simon Robinson's topic in Helicopters
Hi, That's why I added the video to show that the CX is a good little helicopter and I still enjoy flying it. I agree with the slight difference between the CX2 and the CX3. Still a great little heli! Long live the Blade! -
Hiya all, thought I share a video that I made when flying my Blade CX2. Just remembering the CX2 before it taken over by the CX3!

Any advice for a newbie?

Cheers guys, the set up is very easy and very quick. Im hoping that I can pick this up pretty quick and hopefully move up. What would be the next stage? -

Simon Robinson replied to Simon Robinson's topic in Gliders and Gliding - General Discussion
Well we have to start somewhere and I foam would be good for someone who's just starting off. Don't want to run before I can walk. Can't wait to get it flying, I understand the basics of flight and gliding as I am having flying lessons. -
Hi all, I have been flying helicopters for well over a year now and I have been looking into getting into fix wing and maybe in to EDF one day. At the weekend I took some advice from Sussex Model Centre and I bought the Hobby Zone Radian. Off course being the great British weather I haven't had the chance to fly it as yet. Just wondering if any gliding PRO's could give any advice....? Regards Si.

Not sure if I entered already as it get confusing from month to month, but hey count me in again! -
Hi all, I have been flying helicopters for over a year now and it have been on my mind to start trying to fly fixed wing models. This can be backed up as I am about to start flying lesson next year to fly microlight aircraft. I was surfing you tube for RC model videos and I noticed a few videos of EDF aircraft. I was wondering if this is the best way to start and if anyone can give any suggestions on what kit or aircraft etc is best to start on? I hope in time I would like buy the West Wing kit of the Black BA Hawk as I am one in the RAF and two like the aircraft! Also I am use to flying my heli in a park and was also wondering where is the best place to fly a fixed wing aircraft for rolling take offs? Any help guys would be great! Regards Si.

Please count me in again, figures crossed! -
Steve, This a problem for anyone with a helicopter as it can be a number of things! Even If the shaft does not look bent the slightest damage to it will effect it. It only needs a slight movement to up set you heli. Is the tail twitching from side to side? I have a Blade CX2 and if the tail twitcties you normally have to adjust the "Gain" pot to correct this problem. Hope this helps.....
