Best Tips for Beginners Start Play RC Planes

Welcome to The world of RC-EXHOBBY! I will introduce some tips and advice that beginners should know, from choosing a plane to operation suggestions. I hope this helps you. If it does, please leave your thoughts below or share them with your friends.

 

1. Choose the Right RC Plane

Firstly, there are many categories of planes, but you should first get your own RC plane. You can choose to buy an RTF kit or opt to DIY.

If you want to build your plane, check out Flite Test. They are more experienced and have helped many people with DIY projects. However, I recommend you buy an RTF kit for the first time. After gaining some flight experience, try building your plane—you will know what you need by then!

1.1 Big or Small One

I strongly suggest you join an RC plane club and do your first flight with the help of experienced pilots. Of course, you can also ask them for purchasing advice and help.

If you join a club, get a bigger plane with a radio. It's good to buy a simulator for practice before flying. Don't fly big models without experience or help. It's likely to get damaged, and $300 isn't cheap, right?

1.2 Small Plane Beginner-Friendly Models

If you want to try a smaller plane first, you can take a look at our beginner series. They come with 3 different flight modes/gyro levels. Beginner mode has auto-leveling and roll limits. The intermediate mode has a gyro.

Expert mode—the mode I fly most of the time—has no limits, no exposure, and no dual rates. Flying an RC warbird is finally a possibility for those who don't have a lot of money or flying experience.

2. Understand the Basics of RC Flying

Before you take to the skies, it's super important to get a good grasp of the fundamentals.

2.1 How RC Planes Work

RC planes are controlled through radio signals sent from your transmitter to the receiver on the plane. The receiver then tells the plane's servos to move the control surfaces.

Get comfy with the transmitter controls: throttle, aileron, elevator, and rudder. Each one manages a different part of your flight, and knowing them well is key to flying your plane smoothly.

 

 

3. Invest in a Good Simulator

Flight simulators are a beginner's best friend.

3.1 Benefits of Using Simulators

Simulators help you practice without the risk of damaging your plane. They’re a great way to get a feel for the controls and improve your reaction time.

Check out options like RealFlight or Phoenix RC. These provide realistic flight experiences and a variety of planes to try.

 

 

4. Care about the charge

Lipo batteries are extremely dangerous, please do not charge them unattended!!!

4.1 please be safe

Some chargers do not have overcurrent protection, which speeds up the charging process, but charging for a long time may cause them to burn out.

Safety is always the most important, it is best to charge in balance mode.

 

 

5. Try your first flight

Before your first flight, make sure your plane is ready and that the battery is fully charged.

5.1 Check your environment

First, check if there are any obstructions around, try to choose an open space. A park is a good choice, and soft grass can also reduce the damage if the plane falls.

Pay attention to the wind speed at this time. Beginners should start their first flight in calm or light wind conditions. Do not fly at high wind speeds as it is difficult for beginners to maintain balance.

5.2 Start flying

To start, use the remote control to turn on the plane. Make sure it's in beginner mode. Put it on a flat surface, push the throttle gently, accelerate slowly to half throttle, and lift the plane slowly.

The plane officially takes off. When turning, do not use too much force. In beginner mode, there will be automatic gyroscope and correction, so relax and enjoy your first flight.

5.3 Soft landing

Lower the altitude, align with the runway, then slowly reduce to 1/4 power, ensuring the plane is descending slowly. Do not let the nose point directly downward as this will cause the plane to crash and be uncontrollable. Also, do not reduce the speed too much as this will cause the plane to stall.

After the plane slowly descends, lift the nose so that the plane touches the ground in a nose-up position. At this point, you have completed a full flight. Congratulations!
