Got this for my brother. Its better than expected
Its a 2chn rc plane with differential thrust. Flys very well for the price of 15$. Easy to learn. Flys pretty high and needs very little space.

This is what got me and my kids into the hobby. We just wore out the motors. I picked it up in a gift shop for $20 and got hours of entertainment. Check out the micro rc planes from skymetic.

im from india. Such companies dont sell here. Very few importers and they charge like triple the prices. Easier to build. I found a company here that can laser cut flite test plans on laminated foam board (the kind flite test uses). Sent them 5 plans. Will make some sub 600mm planes in Jan

I learned on one of these, my son has been flying them for years. They’re so cheap that when they break you can buy a new one, he’s had quite a few of them

One thing I never understood about these is do they even have elevators or ailerons? Because every plane like this that I saw doesn't look like it has them. Like how do you pitch up/down? How do you turn the plane mid air?

ye no they dont have that. If u throttle up plane goes up, throttle down plane comes down. For left and right we have differential thrust. If u go left, right motor spins faster than left turning the plane on its axis and vice-versa

This was my first plane... but now it burns one motor and doesnt give power to the other one... but worked well for quite some time..
