This is a actually a piece of exercise equipment. When you’re learning, every landing is a crash landing. Do your best to crash it near you or you’ll be walking all over the place. Dynam rc aircraft come in different completion levels to best suit the needs of all RC pilots. A beginner RC pilot can find a ready-to-fly RC airplane with everything included, while RC pilots with their own transmitter, charger and
batteries can save money by using them with any of our bind-n-fly basic (BNF Basic) RC airplanes.
But you won’t mind the walking much because learning to fly this dynam rc aircraft is so fun.
-Only fly over grass if able – pavement impacts break propellers.
-Make sure propeller is well seated before flying – press it onto the shaft firmly
-Don’t rev up the motor with the propeller spinning in the same plane as your face in case it flies off.
-Don’t attempt to takeoff from the ground, instead gently toss into the air and throttle up as this taildragger model is so front heavy. And without a nosewheel, any chip in pavement causes it to faceplant and shatter propeller tips.
You can trim down and use slightly damaged props – make sure it’s still balanced! If the surface is perfectly smooth takeoff is sometimes possible. If you use 1mm music wire to make new, longer, stronger main landing gear, you can takeoff and land more reliably.
But if you want to learn to fly a plane that will do this reliably -DON’T BUY THIS PLANE.-The spring steel main landing gear get bent back after crash landings, and if you try to bend them back into shape too many times you’ll break the wires. They’ll break anyways after enough crashes.
-Keep controller in “beginner mode”
-Don’t fly near trees. I lost mine 25 feet up a pine tree just as I was finally getting good. Luckily I borrowed a tall ladder and the plane only spent one night in the tree.
-Lightly sand your propellers with 150 grit paper and spray paint white to help find the propellers after crashing if you’re near bushes. Can’t stress this enough.
-Since there is a deadzone in throttle stick between 0 throttle and some (but not enough to stay airborne) throttle, you’ll have to learn where that lowest throttle position is to help you descend/ land in a controlled way. Being able to hear the plane’s motor helps, and this is possible from >50ft away unless it’s really noisy out.
Learning basic control must be accomplished in steps:
1 fly straight/ low level with constant throttle
1.5 play with throttle settings – cutting power completely in flight is risky! Learn to adjust trim in flight.
2 controlled crash landings
3 turn big circles/ ovals – no rudder
4 add rudder to turns (learn about how too much rudder will cause a stall and spin/ crash if you’re flying too low to recover)
5 turn tight circles/ ovals
6 reverse turns/ figure eights
7 learn to use elevators at full deflection up/down
8 fly higher
9 glide
Great plane for beginners or intermediate pilots
-Start by flying in a straight line, cut the motor, let the plane sink, even nose down to a degree, then pull back on the stick at the last second to cushion the crash landing. This can be a frustrating process.
-Try flying in big circles next just be leaving the throttle at medium power and banking in one direction
-Tighten down the circles by pulling back on the stick as you’re banking, adjust throttle to keep from changing altitude too much
-As soon as you can start learning how to move the rudder in the same direction that you’re banking to make even tighter and more coordinated turns. Soon, you’ll be always moving your left and right thumbs in the same direction in similar amounts and making nicer, predictable turns. Since the rudder stick works the throttle, you’ll have to practice not changing throttle with your left thumb unless you mean to.
How to handle dynam rc aircraftfor beginner
-Learn to spot the yellow nose of the plane/ white propeller from far away to know when it’s facing you – this will help you know when to stop turning and level out in a new direction
-Fly really high and cut the throttle, play with the controls as you coast all the way down – this is really helpful in learning flying without worrying about the throttle.
You can even dangle a string from the ceiling in your house and tie another string around the plane forward of the wings, the other end around the plane forward of the tail, and suspend the plane in front of a big box fan. You can play with the controls without running the motor at all, and go between expert and beginner modes, learn how to bring the plane back to stable as you fight the side to side oscillations that develop.
Propellers from the Mustang fit my Corsair (Corsair props unavailable at this time) – order extras and also from the get go – so you can fly when you’re free to without having to wait for parts that commonly break/ get lost. The landing gear seems so useless that when they snap you might just fly without them rather than waste money.
Sky-High Shenanigans: The Almost-Indestructible Model Airplane Experience!
Let me start by saying this little guy is pretty much indestructible. I’ve flown on beginner and mid mode. Beginner mode is very stable, but limits turning angles. Mid is perfect. It allows you to take steep turns in any direction, climb, crash, whatever have you. I’ve flown in places I shouldn’t… I’ve hit powerlines, which knocked off the propeller AND seared off the tail wing. I’ll also recommend clear foamless gorilla glue, which does an excellent job repairing any part of this plane. I’ve broken and effectively fixed the nose, a wing, tail, both landing gears, and the list is continuing to grow while accumulating hours upon hours of flight time.
The only downside is that the propellers do break easily. Landing is difficult due to its light weight. I recommend buying a couple four-packs of extras. I also tried the three-blade propeller, which is much more durable, but you sacrifice some speed and it has a little difficulty fighting the wind. (Yes, I’ve been flying the little fella in pretty strong winds lol).
The expert flight mode, I’ll switch on every once in a while, lose stability, do a barrel roll, then switch back to mid for recovering before I crash. Switching between modes is quick and seamless in-flight by the way!
Great purchase and when I do eventually lose it in a tree too small to climb but too high to recover, I’ll be saddened but will very quickly order a replacement.

Have you ever dreamed of soaring through the skies with a model airplane? Have you ever taken the leap and invested in a shiny new model, only to see it crumble into a million pieces after a brief flight? Fear not, dear aviator, for you are not alone in your quest for a plane that is both easy to fly and nearly indestructible.
Introducing the model airplane of your dreams: affordable, delivered right to your doorstep, and ready to take flight at a moment’s notice. No more trudging out to the airfield, only to watch your plane plummet to the ground in a fit of frustration. With this beauty, you’ll be soaring like a superhero in no time. Say goodbye to crashes and hello to endless hours of effortless flight. Your aviation dreams have finally become a reality.
For most people, the beauty of an airplane’s design lies in its lines and curves. For the flier, however, the beauty of a design includes what that design can do. That feeling is as true for RC airplane pilots as it is for pilots of
full-size aircraft. Their differences—aircraft size, and the fact that RC airplane pilots remain on the ground—have very little impact on the way given designs perform. As a result, RC hobbyists have been able to model and fly aircraft that look like the real thing, from RC jets to Dynam RC sailplanes. Whether you’re a beginner or a more advanced RC airplane pilot, Dynam RC is your source for RC aircraft!
