Learn To Fly RC Planes!
So you want to learn to fly RC Planes? You have come to the right place! I have been helping those excited to learn to fly Foam RC Airplanes & Foam EDF Jets since 2012. In that time I have come up with some progression strategies that lead to the quickest path to success and FUN with Remote Control Airplanes.

Trainer RC Planes
Selecting the right RC Plane for beginners can be a complicated one. The questions you need to ask yourself include the following. What is my budget? Where will I be flying? How much wind is there normally where I live? Do I have someone to help me learn to fly with me in person?
I recently added my lists of the Best Beginner RC Planes. These are RTF planes I have used to help total noobs learn to fly RC Planes. Many of those same people fly powerful 6S Jets with ease because they followed the process and did not give up. I cannot stress the not giving up part enough!
For reference, the "RTF" means that the RC plane comes ready to fly with everything you need in the box to quickly get it into the air.
Flight Simulator
This is the flight sim I wish I had when I started flying RC Planes in 2011. I highly recommend getting this not only to learn on, but to have fun with when the weather will not allow you to fly your actually RC Planes too!
Click on the image above to learn more about the RC Flight Simulator. Those details include the current pricing, the lists of Hobbyzone, E-flite, and Hangar 9 RC Planes you get to practice on, worry-free in the comfort of your own home. The best part is the red reset button to start over after a crash!
The only thing I don't like about Real Flight Evolution is that I bought it after I had already learned to fly. The good news is I can still use it to advance my flying skills and fly will my friends online when the weather is bad.
