I have been in the rc aircraft world for only while. I need to know what a brushless fan jet airplane handles like. Is it fast? hard to manuver? Is it bulky and unable to do turns fast and rolls perfectly? If anybody can answer these questions please do.
Since I build bigger aircraft and do NOT use electric fans, I can’t give you a direct answer.
Electric motors, just like nitro motors, provide torque that will cause the plane to want to roll. This is corrected with the aileron trim settings.
Fan or jet powered planes tend to be larger due to the fact that the entire engine MUST be within the ducting used.
Their performance depends on the care in construction and balancing.
Some JET powered aircraft can reach speeds in excess of 200mph, but many prop planes can do better than 100mph. It depends on the plane and the engine.
The first time for flying a RC jet/plane., Is it very hard? (landing)?
pretty pricy toys, dont want to wreck on first fligt, thinking about getting one..
yes, it is hard to get use to. when people get their first plane, they are likely to crash it at least once if not alot of times. there are many trainer planes and most of them are 3 channel planes
3 channel= Thrust (forward and back), elevator (up and down) and rudder(left and right)
4 channel= everything in a 3 channel plane + Ailerons (roll left or right)
5 channel= retractable gear etc.
for beginner planes they cost around $120-200 AUD and they are going to crash a few times but most kits come with extra wings, rudder, elevators and more. i would recommend getting a 3 channel plane. it lets you fly without worrying to much about crashing it.
so yes they are hard to fly at first but after a few flights it will get easier
