If you're new to flying indoors we've got some planes and some tips to help out!

The Night Vapor is awesome!  The Mini Vapor would've been an even better indoor choice.  That thing is TINY.

Good video to watch in quarantine for 2020

I have the duet because my dad wanted to teach me how to fly. Fast forward a couple months and now I taught my friend and he has nearly mastered simple maneuvers.

I'll be honest... I'm watching in July 2016 and it might just be my favorite flitetest video

Sorry but the Hobbyzone Duet is the winner here. I have priced the night vapor. The cheapest vapor is still $30 more than the Duet. The Duet is truly RTF. Everything you need to fly within 30 mins of purchase(time to charge battery) is in the box. It flies in a field or in a yard. It will even carry a small camera. Durability is also amazing. If it does break, it can be fixed with gorilla glue. I keep expecting to have to buy a new plane every time I crash and the darn thing just won't die. Moreover the Duet is very very easy to fly. It helps build confidence in new pilots regardless of their age and that in turn leads to success and a more enjoyable experience and increases the chance that the hobby will grow. I have nothing against the other planes on the list. They're all fine, but the Duet is just everything in a perfect little package. Also it looks good and tracks like its on rails.

I have had the duet for three years, I have broken it many times. It still The duet is the best trainer plane!!!!

I recently bought a hobbyzone duet and it flies surprisingly well! Here in Spain we're having a lot of wind lately, but that's not a problem for the duet. You can even glide with it because its engines will make it turn even with no throttle. I would totally recommend it.

I flew the duet some time ago, that thing rocks, almost indestructible and really stable, plus it can fly outside quite well if the wind is not too strong.

I own a Night Vapor and I love it! You can make it hang on the prop, which is not easy for most planes that don't have ailerons

Wow! I always thought i wouldn't have enough money to have fun flying rc planes but know I think I am going to go for the duet, it looks tons of fun!

[maraos]

I've had the night vapour for attest 1-2 years now and it's great flown it over 300 times and still using the same original prop it came with. Great slow plane, also good for night flying :)

[JJuanjo]

I recently bought a hobbyzone duet and it flies pretty well even with strong wind! Of course it's gonna break if you crash it, but it's easy to fly. It's a nice begginer for a very low price, but dont expect it to survive hard crashes.

You guys should do a review of the UMX Radian, been wanting the Radian but it is too big for my current travel situation; is the UMX for me?

[fpcxenos]

I got the Flyzone Neiuport 17 have not flown it yet but reviews and videos are GREAT! looking forward to it

[Chio_OB]

I love my Night Vapor, its the only plane I can fly in the dark drunk at 2 am! Not that I condone that sort of behaviour, lol

[ryanho]

Bought a Duet, Love it, but HORRIBLE in wind.  The box says 5 MPH or lower wind.  Easy to fly, and for $60 it's a great start to tell you if RC planes is going to be your thing or not.

[prestonpeck]

You guys should really try and build an airplane using the Magnus effect it would me really really cool

[MrRailroadrunner]

Nice video! This is a good guide for beginners, but I notice Josh Scott is hitting the elevator quite hard on the vapor. This might have changed since I got my Vapor, but they generally like a low amount of elevator. Also, I can say the Vapor does fly well, as I have over 500 hours of flight time on mine. One tip I can share, is that Cling wrap is a great substitute skinning if you rip the original. Cover it slowly, super glue it, then cut away the excess. Hope this helps some one, and thanks for posting!

When I was a kid, about 12yrs old. I Designed a Mini Bi plane glider with a 3"inch wingspan, and fuselage about 3.25"inches long. Made of Balsa wood. I used part of a brad nail for nose weight. It could do a loop and glide. Flying it in my bedroom, COOL.
