Sky Launcher Balsa Airplane, ROG Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My brothers and I played with these things all through childhood. Sure, they're light and can be broken easily, but come on, they're made of balsa wood! They're so much more fun than paper airplanes though. If you're going to buy one, I suggest buying some extra rubber bands too. Just in case. Have fun!

Nova Design Airglider 40 - Blue/Orange Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The airglider 40 is a very well made glider. It goes together well but don't be put off by the bending you have to do to give the wings their dihedral. It flies well using the rubber band launcher outdoors and flies well indoors by just tossing it. I wasn't able to figure how to adjust the flight path by adjusting the wings. One thing you shouldn't do is to try and use two people to launch the glider - one to hold the launcher and the other to launch the glider. The glider's tail struck the plastic handle and broke the receptable that holds the rear stabilizers. I used epoxy and repaired it - although not perfectly. The repair worked pretty well and I got it flying again.
The wings are curved into a dihedral by tensioning 30-50# kite line. (I'm guessing the pound strength of the line.) It broke somehow so I measured the old line and cut a length to repair it. I put the kite line through a needle, threaded it through the wing holes, looped it at the end like the original and re-created the tensioning. I experimented with the adjustments on the leading and trailing edges and finally got it right.
It's a neat toy for the adult who remembers the cheap balsa flyers of our youth because it really sails! But I'm not sure it's a great toy for a child because you DO have to be somewhat careful that you don't subject it to too much abuse. It's pretty sturdy considering the materials used (carbon fiber, quality nylon fabric, and spectra type of kite line) but it's not indestructible.)
Nova Design makes good stuff and this is a quality toy for someone who appreciates thoughtful design.

Introducing a completely new concept in model airplanes -- The sail tension of the Airglider 40 is made of tear-resistant Spinnaker cloth and the frame is made of fiberglass and carbon fiber, making it much more stable than comparable wood or foam airplanes.-- The Airglider 40 is visually appealing due to its filigree bracings and it has great potential for experiments such as flying around a curve by turning the wing and altering the center of gravity by adding or removing ballast.-- The Airglider 40 flies best in no wind or very light wind.You can have fun practicing the different launch methods.The "Ground Launch" uses a rubber band catapult to achieve the great starting height -this send off is spectacular and dynamic.The "Sidearm Launch" is a new sporty launch technique that you can use to catapult the Airglider 40 as well as a discus into the air!-- The Airglider 40 is easy to assemble and includes a detailed manual.Get yours today and start flying! -- For Ages 3+.

Kettler Deluxe 4 Child Multiplay Swingset Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for my 1 year old grandson. I looked everywhere for a simple sturdy swing frame that we could put a baby swing on that would last him until he's older. The other small swingsets are flimsy. I feel it's worth the price & has other things you can buy separately as the child gets older. Read description carefully. It only comes with the 2 swings, not the glider.

Tim Bird Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My son played with this toy 25 years ago and it gave him many hours of fun, we went through two birds as he played with it so much, I don't recall what happened to the first bird but the second one we still had in our closet. I brought out the Tim bird for my 5 year old grandson to play with the other day, but unfortunately the band inside broke after about an hour of playing with it, but in all fairness the band was 25 yrs old! I am ordering a new bird today as my grandson was thrilled with the toy as was his father. If you have a large space free of buildings and trees where you can fly this it's a really fun toy. A small child would need the assistants of an adult to wind it up and throw it, my grandson however at age 5 needed no assistance at all.

(More customer reviews)My only complaint is that it came with NO product information at all..no instruction sheet or piece of paper that gave you an 800 # if there are issues. or need to replace something down the road. was easy to put together though. My 5 year old did most of it. 1 rope was longer than the others but we just shortened up the chain on that side. otherwise it makes the glider go screwie...Great product.

Blizzard Glider ARF Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had two flights, fast but not super fast. I am still trying out props and adaptors looking for the right wattage for my setup. A 10x6 folding prop pulls about 300 watts, about where I want to be (a 9x6 fixed prop pulls about 400W). This was a time consuming build. A lot of fiberglass reinforcement has to be glued in slots provided on both the fuselage, wings and tail. All in all, I think I will be very happy with it. It is beautiful to look at, as fast as my skill level, and very stable in the sky. I recommend the "Blizzard" to anyone who has the patience and time to put two or three days into assembly. I think it is worth it.

The Blizzard is a high-performance Sport Liner model that pushes the envelope of the ELAPOR® technology. Built with the highest quality materials the Blizzard utilizes Glass Reinforced Plastic longerons and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic spars to give it the torsional rigidity needed for its high performance flight characteristics. When built with the recommended power pack the Blizzard has the power for vertical hand-launches, breath-taking high-speed passes and thanks to the thin 8.9% airfoil the Blizzard is no slouch when it comes to riding the thermals either.

Easy Star Electric, RTF (colors may vary) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I asked friends about a simple plane to fly for a beginner they pointed me to the Easy Star. When I saw the price of the RTF (Ready to Fly) model I about $%*% my pants! It seemed awfully expensive for an airplane made out of foam.
I quickly realized why it was so expensive. The radio system is excellent. This isn't something someone put together with parts from Radio Shack. This is a quality plane made with above the bar parts.
Everything from the plane itself to the electronics will blow your mind. The wingspan is large enough to impress friends. The receiver is 4 channel and the servos are micro so this setup can be moved into another plane as your level of experience and tastes change.
I have crashed this plane once and my friends have crashed it twice. Well, to be honest, I have crashed it more than 10 times to varying degrees. But the only time it broke I just glued it back together. Now it is nicknamed FrankenPlane. You can barely see the cracks where I glued it, the foam hides them well.
If you are a beginner and you know you will crash, get this plane.
TIPS - When checking the center of gravity (you will see what I mean in the instructions if you are a complete newbie) make sure to hold it by your finger tips under the wings where the lines (you mark) are at, not the body of the plane. The wings.
Put a small piece of tape on the front and back of the canopy.
Glue in the tail and rear wings instead of using their included double sided tape.
Check and RECHECK the elevator (up and down flap on the tail wing) to make 100% sure it is moving up or down the way it is intended to! I didn't and it turned out the up/down joystick was BACKWARDS so on my first flight I promptly ran it into the ground. Because the radio system is top-notch, switching it is as easy as reversing a plug in the transmitter and the back is screwless so no pulling out and putting back in 8 screws like on other models.
Make sure you are 3 (three) miles away from any airfields that might have radio controlled planes flying on them. I found a perfect field to fly in and it turned out that a radio controlled air field was only a little over 1 mile away. That was my only big crash (from about 200 feet). Once the plane got about 1/2 a mile away from me it began to take its instructions from someone else at the airfield.

The Easy Star was designed for first-time pilots in mind, and offers incredibly stable flight characteristics and durability. Powered by a powerful Speed 400 motor mounted on the top so a hard landing won't break the prop or hurt the motor. The Easy Star flies with little input and has the ability to recover easily. Made from Multiplex's durable "Elapor" foam, the Easy Star will take a tremendous amount of abuse without breaking. And, if it does break, it is easily repaired with CA (super) glue. Even after many crashes during the learning process, the Easy Star will be ready for more and is sure to still be around to teach someone else to fly when other trainers would be ready for the trash can!

Cularis Glider/Electric Glider Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Cularis is a great way to get a "full-house" (flaps+ailerons) sailplane without breaking the bank. I've had two of them now, and was able to get both of them built for about $700 each (after power system, receiver, servos, extensions, 3S 2100mAH battery, and a TON of thick CA).
It flys like a dream and is extremely durable due to the Elapor construction. Can be built as a powered sailplane with folding prop, or configured for aerotow or winch launch. The wing attachment system handles all of the servo extensions/connections so you can just snap them on and fly.
It'll perform decent aerobatics (for a 2.6M), looks great during a high speed pass down the line, and can slope/thermal soar like a champ. With a decent computer radio there are a ton of mixing options you can set up to maximize camber-control and flight mode configurations. With full crow braking deployed, it'll slow down in a heartbeat and allows a near-vertical descent to a spot landing.
Get one.
