| > Specialist RC Aircraft > Glow Fuel Aircraft | When you're new to the hobby it's worth contacting a local flying club to get help and hands on advice with flying a model. A full list of national flying sites and aircraft clubs can be found at www.bmfa.org. Powered flight is usually noisy and exciting so care must be taken to avoid annoying, or even worse, colliding with third parties. Some instruction will be necessary as it is all too easy to crash! Remember that warranties are restricted to repair/replacement of faulty items and crash damage is excluded.

Welcome to the world of full blown internal combustion engine powered models, using glow fuel. Power models usually have three functions, throttle, rudder and elevator as the simplest configuration, although provided the operator is using the services of an instructor, there is no reason why a trainer should not have aileron control as well. The typical powered trainer will be high winged,, with sufficient stability to allow the model to fly 'hands-off' while the flyer thinks about what to do. Most models require some degree of building and trimming, a task made much easier by taking advice. |
Flying RC aircraft as a hobby has been growing worldwide with the advent of more efficient power; electric, miniature internal combustion or even jet engines plus lighter and more powerful batteries and less expensive radio systems. A wide variety of models and styles are available. We also supply radio controlled aircraft simulators, so you can hone skills before attempting a first flight or to practice aerobatics without risk of damaging the aircraft. |  more | Thunder Tiger Tiger Trainer Mklll ARTF (TT4583)

The Cougar 2000 v2 is an easy build ARTF which is capable of taking pilots from their first day on the field to the show circuits of the world. Intensively developed over a three year period to fully optimise its fun-fly and 3D flying characteristics. The Cougar has such a good slow flying speed it is an ideal trainer aircraft with the rates on, then flick the rates off and the Cougar can take you to the edge of your capabilities. With the plane correctly set up it will sustain prop-hanging manoeuvres "hands off" making this the ideal prop-hanging trainer.

| |  more | Black Horse Models P47 Thunderbolt ARTF Warbird (ABH033)
Sister to the 60 size P-51 Mustang, the new Thunderbolt is an impressively large and surprisingly scale-like model of one of the all-time great fighters of WWII. Whether you fit a 2-stroke 61 or 4-stroke 91 the performance is spectacular and realistic. With flaps already built into the wing and a set of durable mechanical retracts supplied as standard, the Thunderbolt allows you to re-create all the features of the original. That fabulous silver colour scheme is applied in durable 'Oracover' with a full set of decals for maximum visual impact.

The P40 is fully decked out in the markings of the famous America Volunteer Group (A.V.G) later known as “The Flying Tigers” based in China during the 1941, indeed the Flying Tiger logo carried on the fuselage was designed by none other than Walt Disney, creator of “Mickey Mouse”. This logo together with the Chinese wing markings give the modeler the chance to replicate this famous warbird. This is a model that has sensational sport performance; the lightweight construction ensures manoeuvrability and stability at all speeds combined with the capability to perform superb aerobatics. Designed to operate with a wide range of engines, the P40 includes pre-installed metal retracts that rotate 90 degrees to complete the scale look and provide for solid landings
