Radio Control Airplanes

You've seen those cheesy 1990s commercials boasting that their model trains, however, you'll want to look into this a little bit more before you run out and buy those. Some are a whopping $200+.

Hobby Vs. Toy

Hobby * These are not a good idea for Jr. The model quality radio airplanes are normally $100 minimum. * These hobby flyers are worth the money if you're really into aircraft structure and history. * They offer military replicas, sailboats. * On top of needing the controller you will need to buy a servo to send signals to the rudders and propellers. These are considerably cheaper (phew). * The last thing you'll need are receiver crystals. * Enjoy. You can do this for hours. Learn new things, upgrade your models, and show off your mad flying skills to people in the park. Toys * These are more practical as toys for kids. They can cost approximately between $15-$70. * They offer just as much variety but on a different grade scale. * These flyers come with their designated remote. * They are great for teaching aerodynamics and aviation to children and students. * They run on normal batteries, like C batteries.

Types of Flyers

Gliders * These are the non-propeller planes. They're still controlled via remote but they're aerodynamics are slightly different. Airplanes * The classic choice. You can't go wrong with any type of airplane. Try a plane that's colorful for younger kids. Blimps * Helicopters offer hours of fun if your kid has those army men action figures. * Some blimp toys can be written on with personalized messages. UFOs and Spaceships * Do you have a little space cadet at home? If your child dreams of being an astronaut, along with buying him a NASA helmet try buying him a UFO to fight against!
