Go Go Bird Eagle

The Hanvon Eagle is an outstanding product that is very professionally made, packaged and delivered within a few days in the USA. First, it is Ready-To-Fly (RTF) out of the box. The only additional items required to fly it are two AAA batteries for the controller and a USB Type C Port cable to charge the lithium batteries. Second, it comes with excellent instructions that are easy to understand and follow. The instructions are on 8.5 x 11 paper, so they are easy to read and very well written. Follow them, and the assembly of the Eagle is quite simple. Third, it is simple to fly once you become familiar with the controller and make the necessary adjustments to the slide weights on the wings. The receiver is already installed and the center of gravity is already calculated for you. All you have to do is install the charged battery into the battery compartment, turn the Eagle on, and turn the controller on – that’s it. I cannot emphasize enough how simple this is to assemble and fly. It is loaded with some pretty advanced technology that makes it very easy to fly.Tips for flying the Eagle:1. Become familiar with the controller functions before you fly. I am right handed, so I launch the Eagle with my right hand and fly the Eagle with the controller in my left hand. I mainly fly it with my left thumb, and use my left index finger to maintain straight flight and altitude when necessary. Before you launch the Eagle, let it get to full power (about 3 seconds), and then give it a good throw upward at an angle between 30 and 45 degrees relative to your throwing shoulder. You will be surprised at the power of the wing motion. The controller also features a landing button that is used after you have brought the Eagle in on a landing glide path and reduced power to a minimum.2. You will need a large open area with grass to fly the Eagle. I would suggest at least a 100 yard x 100 yard grass area while standing towards one side for your initial flight observations. Obviously, any RC Aircraft Club field will work just fine. The reasons you need a grass area this large are: (1) The initial adjustment of the wing sliders. For example, my Eagle initially would not turn to the left. All I had to do was move the left wing slider out about 1.5 inches, and the Eagle turned both left and right just fine. This will be the only adjustment you have to make. Please note that the wing slider adjustments for your Eagle may be different than mine. (2) The controller has both a take-off and a landing button. When you bring the Eagle in to land, it may flap a few times on the ground. This is where having grass is important. The wing spars and tail are surprisingly durable, and as long as the Eagle lands in grass, it will be just fine. (3) The Eagle has a fairly large turning radius, so you will not be turning it very quickly. This is the main reason you will want to fly it in a large open area.3. Learn to fly the Eagle in no wind conditions. No wind conditions are usually early in the morning or late in the evening. No wind conditions will allow you to properly set the wing sliders for optimum turning flight and allow you to learn how to fly the Eagle very quickly. Once the wing sliders are set and you are comfortable flying the Eagle, you can fly it in very mild winds. The flying weight of the Eagle is only about 6 ounces, so even mild winds of 2-3 miles per hour can affect flight performance. This is where you can really have some fun with it in terms of low speed soaring into the wind and higher speed flight with the wind. But, be careful with it, the Eagle will make significant altitude drops when it hits wind shear caused by gusting winds.Again, if you like ornithopters and bird flight, you will love the Eagle. It is sold in a Ready-to-Fly (RTF) configuration, it is simple to assemble, and it is easy to fly. You can really have some fun with it, and don’t be surprised when some of your local raptors take an interest in it, too!

This is the RC plane you should have.

Made too cheap for its price tag stays on the air a few seconds, hard to make it fly

couldn't get it to fly and the one time that it did we were in an area that had heavy Bush and debris it flew about 50 ft and dived into a place that we couldn't find we're still searching not recommended at all
