Yellow Nine Eagles Solo Pro 328A 4CH RC Helicopter

Yet another great product from the Nine Eagles line of micro helis, the Solo Pro 328 is the complete package for the new heli pilot and experienced pilots alike. 

Nine Eagles Solo Pro 328A

Whether you are a first timer, stepping up from a coaxial, or a seasoned pilot looking for a low stress flying experience, the Solo Pro 328 is for you! This heli is slightly larger than most other micro fixed pitch models on the market today, adding to its stablility. With its easy to handle flight characteristics, you will be in the air and impressing your friends in no time. 

Also, a unique feature to this model is two selectable flight modes - "Primary" and "Advanced". Primary mode is the default setting and is recommended for indoor flying and less experienced pilots as it offers smoother and easier to control flight characteristics. Advanced mode offers a more aggressive throttle curve and response and is recommeded for more experienced pilots. 

The Nine Eagles Solo Pro 328A comes fully assembled. All that is needed to be done is to charge the battery with the included variable rate charger, insert the AA batteries into the radio, and your ready to fly.

The included 2.4ghz transmitter with digital trims offers interference free flying, and can be easily converted from mode 1 to mode 2 in about 30 seconds. A spare set of main and tail blades come with the kit to get you back in the air if you have any bumps.

The Solo Pro helicopter is truly a entry class 4-Channel helicopter. 4-Channel means the helicopter can receive 4 signals from your transmitter, the signals are as follows:

Elevator : Going Forward / Backward

Aileron : Sliding Left / Right

Rudder / Yaw : Changing Nose Heading

Throttle : Fly Higher / Lower

 These are the basic controls for all Nine Eagles RC Helicopters, so playing this Helicopter will get you to know which stick is for what movement for Big RC Helicopters. So we would say this is a good entry model of RC Helicopter.

The greatest feature on the Nine Eagles Solo Pro 328A is the 45 degree Stabilizer Bar, we call this design the "Bell Rotor System". It gives the heli totally new flying experience. Factory used weight blocks instead of paddles at the end of the stabilizer bar, this makes the Solo Pro 328A "Much More" stable than ordinary rotor head design, as a trade off, it flies slower, but more stable. The whole body is made of elastic plastic that is hard to break and one thing is that, it is very light, making it durable in crash. With simple mechanism, great for beginners, as this means easy to repair.

The 2.4GHz radio system, allows you to fly with zero interference. Also, multiple helicopters can fly at the same time in the same area! Worried about the throttle? Nine Eagles has done a good job about the changing of Mode, simpily by turning the antenna from one side to another, that's it!

Building F7U EP Scale Model Airplane One

In recent years, due to the widespread use of brushless motors and lithium batteries, so performance electric model aircraft has improved by leaps and bounds. Only 380 series electric model aircraft, the thrust to weight ratio increased from about 0.6 to, even 2. This change can only be cautiously original practice flight model with the "fighter" performance, but also makes love enjoy the fun of flying die immediately turning to the faithful like the real electric model aircraft.F7U the early 1950s in the United States Navy aircraft carrier equipped with twin tailless fighter jets. Has a very advanced design concepts, but also has good aerodynamic performance. I like this very much.

The basic structure of the model
Foam is really making model airplanes as a good material with easy styling, simple processing, and many other advantages, if the paper reinforcement methods combined, but also greatly shelves structural strength, the effect is very satisfactory. So today introduced the use of foam production model."Machete" no horizontal tail, the structure is relatively simple, the whole frame model is divided into five parts: body (divided into two parts), wings and tail (exactly two), respectively, with foam cutting, grinding production easy processing.
Shorter fuselage, nose and cockpit tucked the front, two jet engines juxtaposed tail. The parts are available directly cut from the foam. Before production, we first processing of raw materials into the size of a more accurate rough. After rough machining, the need to play on the necessary size of its former center, so as to make the production of the body accurate, and looking nice. Taking into account the need to dig out the position of the body placed inside the power systems and electronic devices, and therefore choose to use two foam split ways --- first dig up every piece of foam needed empty spaces, then one further processed synthetic rubber appearance. Thus, the flow line shape of the fuselage can be done quite detailed. When digging in the cabin, you can make use of a small tool - low voltage electric wire cutting done a semi-circular ring, use it to dig foam as easy as cut the apple skin, and more accurate.
The production wing, first with homemade electric style "planer" will cut into thick foam flat plate of 18mm; press the external dimensions cut edges; finally polished with sandpaper to smooth asymmetric double-convex airfoil . When sanding, I use the coarse sandpaper No. 360, No. 600 sandpaper and then finely ground, and finally with water, sand finer polish surface.Because the flight model design faster, so the wing span direction must be strengthened. And my approach is to use a section of about 4mm in diameter carbon fiber fishing rod mounted on the lateral surface of the wing (not fishing rod protruding wing surface, otherwise it will affect the smooth surface): On the surface of the wing and cut a carbon nanotube to adapt notch; carbon tube pressed into the slot; then a small amount of glue filled.

RC Planes

Ailerons and wing body polished on both sides together and then cut down in order to maintain consistency with the upper and lower surfaces of the wing. Ailerons can cut paper or polyester tape hinge connecting the wing (the need to ensure flexible activities). Both ailerons whole machine is only moving part is the control center of various flight conditions, as long as their activities properly, accurate, would generally be a good flight performance.Two relatively large vertical tail shape is consistent with no moving parts. Need to dig beneath the tail of a mule, to insert it into the back of the wing and the wing upper and lower surfaces with adhesive. Because the model is not set landing gear, the thickness is relatively large, so the special will be made ??thicker lower part of the tail, not only increases as the real model aircraft during landing is not easily damaged.
I made this aircraft model uses aileron and elevator mixing ways: left and right wing of the tube with a steering, remote control of the mixing function to set the aileron and elevator linkage, ie, with aileron channel directional control, lift channel level control. This model can not be done in addition to the class action side fly, but you can do a lot of stunts.

Model Seaplane

Seaplane is the energy takeoff, landing and parking of aircraft on the water, mainly used for maritime patrol, anti-submarine, rescue and sports. The first flight took off from the water successfully, manufactured by the famous French aviator and aircraft designer Watts Brothers. This is a box-kite-glider, fitted with floats under the fuselage. June 6, 1905, this glider on the Seine by a motorboat towing rose into the air.

RC Seaplane

Seaplane is divided into two type, hull and pontoon. According planing hull type seaplane designed with special shape of the fuselage, the fuselage belly produced buoyancy while floating in the water; pontoon is to land the aircraft's landing gear replaced by buoys, generate lift by floats, the body does not touch the water when the plane floating. There is also an amphibious aircraft, based on the hull or pontoon seaplane equipped with retractable landing gear - away when water landing, taking off and landing on the road down to achieve amphibious flying.
The main advantage is that you can hydroplane in the vast waters of the river, lake, river, sea surface, security, performance, space requirements for more economical, it is possible to take-off and landing on the water, and welcomed to the fans of the model plane. Water model aircraft also emulate real aircraft, from the structure is divided into two kinds of floats and full, but more of a combination of both designs.
As we all know, the buoyancy acting on the object immersed in water equal to its weight of water in the drain. Therefore, the key water model aircraft design is to have sufficient underwater volume. Structural materials to use more water model airplane balsa or foam material.

RC Seaplane

When you design the water model aircraft, you pay attention to the body or buoys with water contact angle size. Compared with the land, Higher landing and landed in the water the drag model airplanes, if the contact angle is too large, the model can easily lead to tipping and other accidents. So generally the front of the fuselage or the buoy designed to streamline and attention during takeoff and landing control body and the water contact angle, to avoid accidents. In addition, to ensure that the model aircraft not wandering off when it is flying in the water, some of the fans at the wing tip contacts the surface of the location set reference guide tip, through its guiding role in the water, allowing the model aircraft to take off from the water line. This should be a good innovation.
This is what I want to introduce you to the water model airplanes, hope you like it.

A Beginners Guide to RC Planes

So you've finally decided to put on your big boy pants and get a plane. But now, what kind of plane should you get? What are the different types of models? How are they going to fly? What's the best one for beginners? EP? IC? RTF? ARF? Well, let's get started, and hopefully by the end of this, you'll be a little more educated and can choose the best RC Airplane for you!

RC Airplane

RTF Planes vs ARF Planes
Let's begin with RTF and ARF. RTF and ARF are used to categorize planes.
1. RTF stands for "Ready to Fly". Ready to Fly products have very minimal assembly requirements. They come pre-packaged and should be able to start flying right out of the box. Some planes require that you attach the fuselage or wings to the plane because of packaging efficiency. Sometimes the wingspan of the plane might be too large to be packaged complete. If listed RTF for HobbyPartz, NitroPlanes, Xheli, the airplane will come with a Transmitter(TX), Receiver(RX), and a Battery (you may need to buy batteries for the transmitter). Some planes will come with chargers, and some don't. But that depends on the manufacturer and the product itself.
2. ARF stands for "Almost Ready to Fly". In terms of packaging, it is almost the same as RTF planes, except that there are a minor installments you need to do. ARF planes do not come with a Transmitter, Receiver, Battery, or Battery Charger. You're going to have to buy/install those parts yourself. ARF planes are the next step up for beginner pilots. You can take your the transmitter/receiver/battery from your old plane and program it on to the new ARF Plane. This goes for almost all planes of the same channel type.
Using Different Channel Transmitters *Side Note*
A 4-Channel controller will not be able to control a 6-Channel Plane, because it is missing 2 extra channels. But a 6-Channel Transmitter can control a 4-Channel Plane and the other two channels will be ignored unless used for other options such as extra lighting or servo's being used. If you had a hard time following the last bit, let me break it down for you:
Each channel is an arm, and those arms are pushing/pulling strings. A 6-Channel Controller as 6 arms, and can control 6 strings. It can also control 5 strings, 4 strings, 3 strings. But a 4-Channel controller with only 4 arms cannot control a plane with 6 strings. Makes sense? Alright! Onto more PLANES!
EP Planes vs IC Planes:
1. EP (Electric Powered) Planes are exactly what the name implies: planes that run off of electricity. These planes are designed and built to run off of electric motors and batteries. EP Planes usually run off of LiPo Batteries and have an electric motor that goes along with it.
2. IC (Internal Combustion) Planes or Gas Powered Planes are planes that are run off of nitro/gasoline. These planes have engines use internal combustion to drive the plane.
(Keep in mind some airplanes are not compatible with gas/fuel from a gas station pump, please research your engine before using the correct fuel. This will be further discussed in a future post.)
As a beginner plane, an EP Plane is probably a better choice. There is much less maintanence, the pricing is better, and most beginner foam series are powered by electric motors. The thing about IC Planes is that it uses a Nitro Engine or Gasoline engine. This will cause more time on maintaining the airplane such as changing out parts, filters, oil, and making sure everything stays clean. EP Planes do not need a large amount of maintenance and are a lot less complicated in terms of parts. Most EP Planes today are made out of foam, which brings me to my next subject.

RC Airplanes

Over the past years, the hobby industry has seen a influx of Foam Planes being introduced into the market. At first, these planes were not so popular among hobbyists. Purists would say that "wood will always be better" and it was wood that "made the industry". Now that is a true statement, in its own sense. Wood is what most planes were made of when the hobby began. But as technology progressed, so did the materials that were being used to manufacture these planes.
There are 3 Types of Foam Planes to be aware of:
1. EPP Foam
- Condensed Foam, meaning it is more durable than EPO and Depron.
- Heavier (Caused because the foam is condensed)
- Finish is Rough (The look is not as smooth)
2. EPO Foam
- Not as condensed as EPP Foam, but still stronger than Depron Foam
- Lighter
- Finish is smooth, not as rough as EPP
- Used for Scale Planes or Planes that have more realism
3. Depron Foam
- Lightest of all the Foam Types
- Used for Gliders
- Extremely Brittle
So now you know what types of planes are out there and ready for you. This is a very general guide on RC Planes. It gets more detailed as you get more into the hobby, like any hobby out there, but this is the stuff that you should know before buying your plane. Remember that learning to fly can be fun, but you'll be crashing quite a bit. So choose a cheap and durable plane. Start small, and work your way up. The bigger the plane, the control/handling issues you'll run into.
Good luck and happy flying!
