EXHOBBY RC BLOG

At EXHOBBY, we don't believe in resting on our laurels. A great RC plane can always be made better, stronger, and more responsive. The beloved Volantex 761 Series is famous for its beginner-friendly gyros, but the real secret to its legendary durability lies beneath the foam. By replacing traditional wooden spars with rigid, ultra-lightweight carbon fiber tubes, we've engineered a micro airframe that can survive high-G maneuvers and unforgiving beginner landings.

Tired of fumbling with tiny screws just to swap your landing gear? Learn how the new EXHOBBY buckle-design landing gear makes RC plane maintenance a breeze for all pilots.

Stop cutting into your foam fuselage! Discover how EXHOBBY's revolutionary detachable access port makes repairing electronics in the BF-109 and Spitfire clean and tool-free.

If there is one certainty in the RC airplane hobby, it's that you will eventually strike the ground nose-first. With traditional setups, this usually results in a snapped propeller blade or, even worse, a bent motor shaft. To keep you flying longer and spending less on replacement parts, we've integrated a brilliant Propeller Saver System into our aircraft. By allowing the propeller to safely pop off upon impact, this clever design absorbs the shock and protects your electronics.

The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is the undisputed king of modern air superiority, and translating that stealthy, twin-engine aggression into an RC model is no small feat. The Volantex F-22 Raptor brings the thrill of fifth-generation fighter performance right to your local park. Combining iconic stealth aesthetics with lightning-fast agility and an onboard stabilization system, this RC jet promises an exhilarating flight experience for both intermediate and advanced pilots.

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is one of the most successful and recognizable combat aircraft in aviation history. For RC pilots, owning a miniature version of this agile dogfighter is an absolute must. The Volantex F-16 Jet perfectly captures the sleek, single-engine design of the original while delivering blistering speed and precise handling. Let's explore what makes this EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) jet a top-tier choice for thrill-seekers looking to dominate the sky.

Originally designed in the 1950s as a military trainer, the T-28 Trojan is legendary for its gentle flight characteristics and distinct tricycle landing gear. The VolantexRC 4-Channel T-28 Trojan brings that exact same reliability to the RC world. Thanks to the built-in XPILOT stabilizer, this scale warbird offers incredibly smooth handling, making it the perfect transition plane for pilots stepping up to 4-channel aerobatics. Get ready to turn heads at the flying field.

Summer is the perfect season for RC flying, and if you are looking for the ultimate gift for yourself or a fellow hobbyist, we have exactly what you need. This quarter, EXHOBBY has proudly released two of the most iconic WWII warbirds to ever grace the skies: the legendary British Spitfire and the formidable German BF-109. Whether you want to recreate historic dogfights or just enjoy stunning scale realism, let's look at the coolest planes hitting the runway this season.

The Supermarine Spitfire is more than just an airplane; it is a symbol of resilience and one of the finest piston-engine fighters of World War II. Famous for its elliptical wings and revolutionary all-metal stressed skin, the Spitfire dominated the skies over Europe. For RC enthusiasts, flying a scale model of the Spitfire is a way to connect with that rich aviation history. Let's delve into the fascinating background of this aircraft and see why its RC counterpart is so beloved.

When outfitting a new RC airplane, choosing the right receiver is a matter of aircraft survival. But what exactly is the difference between a "Parkflyer" receiver and a "Full Range" receiver? The answer boils down to two critical factors: the physical size of your aircraft and how far away you intend to fly it. Using a short-range receiver on a giant-scale glider is a guaranteed recipe for a lost signal. Let's break down which receiver technology you need for your specific flying style.

Imagine spending hours unboxing and building your new RC plane, only to take off and instantly plunge it into the dirt. One of the absolute most common causes of beginner crashes is having reversed control surfaces. When you pull back on the stick to climb, the plane dives instead. Checking and correcting the direction of your servos before your maiden flight is a mandatory safety check. Here is a foolproof guide to ensuring your aircraft responds exactly the way it should.

Speed isn't the only way to win on the water. While 50mph brushless RC speedboats offer pure adrenaline, the strategic, silent world of RC sailboat racing is quietly taking over local ponds. It is a sport of pure skill, wind reading, and precision—mirroring actual Olympic sailing events. Whether you want to tear up the lake with raw voltage or outsmart your opponents in a highly tactical regatta, let's explore the different types of RC boat races.
