volantexrc RC Plane FW190 Fighter 4CH Remote Control Airplane RTF with Aileron, Gyro, Aerobatics & 3 Modes to Fly, Hobby Radio Controlled Warbird Aircraft for Adults, Beginners (761-17)

I am an experienced RC pilot with over 65 planes since I started 10 years or so ago. Recently went to college and moved into a dorm and couldn't bring any of my big planes with me. However, I bought this little guy, and I'm glad I did. It flies well; the gyros work amazingly, having flown it in 25mph steady winds. Mine came with two batteries and 3 props (Ordered the FW-190; I'll add pictures to this review at a later time.) and with both batteries on the 3-bladed prop, I got about 35~45 minutes of flight at half throttle, which is insane! Its extremely durable (the controller is NOT DURABLE AT ALL) and handles crashes well. No tip stall to either side on both beginner and expert modes. The rudder has great control response, as does the elevator, even with such small amounts of travel. Ive suggested these little planes to a few of my newfound friends, and even those with zero experience are getting very good at flying them. Couldn't recommend them enough. Id buy them only on Amazon though, as if something does go wrong, you can return it unlike sites like Alibaba, where I see these sold for cheaper. But in the 5 that were purchased (one by me, the rest by friends), we've all had great experiences. All of us have different models. They do behave differently, with the Corsair being very unhappy at slow speeds, the P-51 doing well at low speeds but having some stall issues, and the Spitfire model being an all-around great aircraft with the eliptical wing. All of us get similar flight times in similar flight conditions, with the longest-running two being the Spit and Mustang lasting the same. The P-40 flew really well but didn't like the wind as much, and the slowest was the Zero. It still flew nicely, however. Definitely buy this whether your a young kid looking to get into the hobby and toss a little foamie around your little league field or an older guy looking for something cheap and small to toss and boss at the club field! 10/10 will buy one again. More than likely the entire rest of the lineup!

The plane’s gyro system is outstanding. This is the 3rd Volantexrc 4ch RC plane I’ve purchased. They are an absolute joy to fly and easy to control with 3 selection modes on the remote. Basically in beginner mode it will only let you bank left/right so far before the gyro kicks in and keeps the airplane in a stable turn. In expert mode, the gyro doesn’t stop the bank or rolling action. The two previous planes I’ve purchased were the p-51 variants, again outstanding. So why the 4-stars, because the first plane FW190 I received, which was a gift for Christmas, was obviously a return that had been crashed and even missing one of the propellers. There was damage to the wings that looked as if someone tried to repair it and there was obviously damage to the nose, and as mentioned, the propeller which came attached on the previous models I purchased, was missing on this aircraft. It was a little upsetting to watch my son look at a damage used plane on Christmas morning. I contacted Amazon for a replacement. I don’t know if getting the used/broken plane was on Amazon or EXHOBBY, but I’d love to know how it happened. See the pictures of how it looked when I took it out of the box. I also rated it 4 stars because the new one I received, the one I’m leaving the review for, looks as if the tail section is slightly twisted to the left. The horizontal and vertical stabilizer portions of the aircraft body to be exact, not the control surfaces (elevator/rudder). The plane is completely new, so this is more of a manufacturing issue. I haven’t had a chance to fly it yet, but if It doesn’t fly straight in expert mode, I’ll be exchanging it as well. In short, as long as you don’t get a used, damaged or defective plane, this is an awesome toy that is a load of fun for kids and adults. As I mentioned previously, the 2 P-51’s I’ve ordered in the past were perfect, no issues.

The ZHIKE RC Airplane is a fantastic gift for anyone interested in remote control planes, especially for beginners and hobbyists alike! This 4-channel plane, designed with a built-in gyro, is remarkably stable and easy to fly—even for those new to RC flying. My husband found it super engaging and loved how smoothly it handled in the air, with responsive controls that make it easy to perform tricks and navigate. It’s durable enough to withstand some bumps, so it’s perfect for outdoor fun without too much worry. It’s so great that my husband has 34 of them in the basement—just for him! No kidding! If you’re looking for an entertaining and exciting way to spend time outdoors, I highly recommend this plane for both adults and kids!

This is my first 4ch RC plane. It’s absolutely fantastic! I really like how it has 3 levels of gyro assistance, making it very easy to fly. I can throw it in my back yard and fly it around the neighborhood and land it right next to me no problem. The range is also impressive, you can fly it high enough than you can barely see it. It has a low battery warning as well that is pretty accurate and gives you enough time to fly it back before the battery runs out. Flying without the landing gear installed seems to be the way to go, as it will fly and climb better, just make sure to land it softly in the grass!

Was a Christmas gift but the rear landing gear fell off on its maiden flight. Hopefully it will get more flight time before something else happens.
