The BEST Beginner RC TRAINER PLANE 2019 - HobbyKing Bixler v1.1 EPO FOAM 1400mm Powered Glider

The BEST Beginner RC TRAINER PLANE 2019 - HobbyKing Bixler v1.1 EPO FOAM 1400mm Powered Glider
The next iteration of the Bixler has arrived! The perfect first model for the aspiring RC pilot due to its almost unbreakable airframe and pusher style power system. It is super easy to assemble. Literally takes minutes and then you just have to drop in your receiver and a 3S1300 to 3S2200 lithium polymer flight pack.

You won't get bored of this model quickly. It can also perform most aerobatics and will have the new and intermediate RC pilot entertained for a long time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

Good episode, good plane! I’ve lost track of the flight count on my Bixler 2. I’ve had it for years now, have flown it with a GoPro attached, rebuilt it umpteen times, and it keeps on doing its thing. You’re right, it’s an excellent 4-channel trainer, and just looks cool in the air.

This is the plane I tell people to start with. Now that they stopped selling the Clouds fly floater jet.

Great overview. Looking at either this or the XUAV Skysurfer; very difficult call. Interested in your reference to a motor upgrade but couldn’t find much at HobbyKing. Do you have any links of insights?
