LEAMBE Remote Control Aircraft Plane, RC Plane with 3 Modes for Easy U-Turns and Control for Adults & Kids

This plane, and frankly any of the other similar versions of the same (whether it be from Leambe/Volantex/Rage RC), all perform exceptionally well for their size. They can take a bit of wind, the stabilization handles exceptionally well, and boy can they take a beating. I now own two, this model and the Corsair from Rage RC. Both fly about the same, can't tell much of a difference. This one can fly marginally slower than the corsair due to the wing structure. As for the abuse, I flew this one at about 2/3 throttle into a goal post trying to be fancy. It connected with the inner leading edge of the right wing, prop flew off, plane spiraled about 20 feet away.. slapped the prop back on and away it flew. Both this and the Corsair have taken enough abuse that eventually the wing assembly began to separate from the fusealage. In both cases, I took a hobby knife to them, made a clean cut along the seam, and using Foam-Tac glue, I tacked both wing assembles back on and they both continue to be a joy to fly. What's great about these little planes, is you don't really need much space to fly. Once you've developed your skills enough, they can be flown in a pretty small space. Of course, having more room is more enjoyable, but not necessary. To try and simulate a test on how much load the wings can bear, I took my corsair into a vertical nose dive from ~100 feet up, at full throttle, and pulled out of the dive at about 20 feet off the ground. Zero issues. I love these little planes. Two of my buddies have since purchased a similar version (from Leambe i think?) and they both love em. I've since started getting into larger planes (my first being the Carbon Cub S2) which is also a lot of fun to fly, but in a way, I think I like these little ones better simply due to their versatility. Anyway, enough ranting. I hope this review helps. I know it would have helped me before buying, but if you're interested at all in trying out RC planes, for ~$100-$110 all in, these are incredibly fun, and boy howdy do they look good flying. If you do purchase, check out some of the 5-pack battery/multi-charger combos using the 400mah battery packs. If the connecter looks the same, they'll work, and will let you enjoy flying near continuously for an afternoon. Great starter planes, I hope this helps people make an informed decision. Just keep in mind, the other 400mm planes are all basically the exact same thing should you like another model better. good luck have fun

We love these planes.I bought two of these aircraft: two separate colors. One for my son and one for me! For his birthday you know what I mean?Never flown an RC plane before. The beginner setting was safe enough. We used this in a parking lot, no soft grass landings. The plane is just styrofoam, yet took a beating. The nose is all chewed up from straight down crashes. The front section split apart at a seam. The wheels broke from the styrofoam.Everything was glued back with crazy glue. Everything works fantastic. I'm thinking of adding some spray foam back to the nose to give it body. I kept flying it after it split and no problems.I'm quite amazed at the beating they keep taking. We also broke a ton of propellers in the parking lot. I bought several packets of more props.A thing to know about the controllers is, if you buy two or more, they seam to have a way to connect to the first aircraft that responds back.So if you buy two, and you turn them on near one another, one remote can end up controlling both planes.Just need to power off the remote and disconnect the battery a bit away from one another. This happens every time we go out to fly. No big deal though.We mostly fly now in intermediate mode and love it. The plane dances across the sky. We also crash much less now.Soon we hope to use expert more often but expert is definitely for experts.Love them, buy them.

This plane flys amazing! I highly recommend this for beginners and intermediate flyers. Pretty durable and has a long battery life. Great for a kid’s first RC plane. Though it does not have an on/off switch which is really annoying. But overall it is a great plane.

This has gave us a blast for the past year. Thanks to unseasoned pilots this poor plane has been put through hell and back. And survived. Had to reglue certain features (wheel saddle contacts, etc) from crashes but, she bounces back as long as the prop doesn’t break- luckily they supply 2, 2-blade and 2, 4-blade props.I love that it has the beginner and expert modes, with the self correcting orientation. Helps teach less experienced pilots the basics and then someIt also fits other small lithium pack batteries but the weight/spacing can be problematic if they aren’t meant to fly, so make sure to do the balancing test prior to flight.Otherwise- cheers!

Great little flier.

Do not waste your money on Asurion warranty!!! Our plane quit working after about 6 months. We tried to file a claim and they just send you back to Leambe. There is only a 90 day warranty from the manufacturer so it is a complete scam. Save your money and buy a better plane and forget the absolutely useless Asurion warranty.

These little planes are great. They take a licking and keep on ticking.In beginner mode it handles extremely well, the gyro function is impressive. Intermediate mode give a fair amount of additional control without letting you get out of control, and then when ready the expert mode takes off all the training wheels and let's you go full acro.It handles up to 10mph winds (suggested in beginner or intermediate mode to help stability).Typically I fly without the landing gear to allow for more speed. The prop will simply pop off when landing and then just pop it back on for the next flight. The prop saver is very clever.These are an amazing value. Random people who have seen me fly these in the open field in my neighborhood have ordered them and have joined me. If you're looking at these, do yourself a favor and pull the trigger, you'll be happy you did.
