RC Product Showcase - October 2012

by FliteTest | October 29, 2012 | (0) Posted in News

Thanks to viewers like you, who have been contacting manufacturers and distributors, we've got some great new products that have been shipped to us!  


We'll be featuring these products in the near future but in the meantime we wanted to share some of the new arrivals!


RC Logger sent us the RC Eye One, this multi rotor is designed for indoor and outdoor flight.  It comes with everything you need to fly.  This self-stabilizing, 4-rotor RC copter is fun for beginners as well as experienced pilots.

Micro Aces sent us some great 1/24 scale RC kits. These lightweight, micro RC kits are made from Depron. 


The kits include an Rx Clip System and quick release rudder and elevator control rods that allow you to pop and swap your receiver brick even in the field so you can share the electronics between planes. 

(Please note the receiver is not included in Microaces kits)


Thanks to Horizon Hobby who sent us a box of components including the Spektrum Receiver that you'll need for your Micro Aces RC Flyer.


Hobbico sent out the Flyzone DHC-2 Beaver!  The Beaver offers a quick and easy assembly, with no gluing, and AeroCell foam construction offers plenty of surface detail complemented by working LED lights, a replicaradial engine and more. The Beaver includes floats, as well as conventional landing gear. 



We wanted to also mention that the Dollar Tree Foamboard we use when building our scratch builds is made by a company named Adams -  RL Adams Plastics, Inc. 


The foamboard is lightweight and the paper coating is thin and strong making it great for sturdy and lightweight scratch built planes!  And best of all… it's cheap!

Stay tuned for detailed reviews on these products and thanks again to:

Cant wait to see the beaver in action! My dream is to fly over water in FPV. Getting my first plane ever soon and I have to say that its a Bixler 2. Even though I just saw the review on the Firebird Stratos and got that one too.

Is the beaver good as a next trainer plane?

Great set of products to look forward to! I'm really impressed with concept Micro Aces has developed. Brilliantly simple or simply brilliant? I spent a fair bit of time watching their build videos. Definitely one of those, "Why didn't I think of that?" things.

Also looking forward to the Beaver. I've had my eye on this one for a while. I did get a flush of jealousy for a moment when I saw all of this cool stuff you are receiving! I REALLY need to prioritize my RC want list!
