That work being done makes the Zlowest much easier to setup than ever before. It can be built and flown in the same day! Also, the Zlowest 3Ch can be a night flier, it has an all carbon fiber airframe which is almost indestructible. With the butterfly design, it is highly aerobatic, designed for fast rolls, tight inside outside loops, inverted flight, the unique IFO “falling leaf” maneuver and the Zlowest will even hover in the air. Not only that, add optional LED light bulbs and or optical fiber can also be mounted on it to stand out with your flyer at night! You may mount different colors with your friends and fly together!

If you have been flying RC airplanes, why don’t you try flying RC helicopters for a change.  They are fun to watch and fly differently than the planes.  You can now have a collection of RC aircrafts to fly with your friends.You can even find exact replicas of famous models of helicopters.  They are made of the best and lightest materials so you can spend hours on end flying them.  Just make sure that your batteries are charged and ready to go.  You don’t want to go home early because of dead batteries.  Just make sure that you have spare batteries on hand or have a couple of rechargeable batteries that are topped up already.

remotecontrolledairplanes-airlandseahobbies.jpgYou can have lots of fun flying remote control airplanes with your family or your friends.  There are different planes out there so you can choose which plane to fly.  You can choose bomber planes, stealth planes, acrobatic planes and more.  Some of them are even exact replicas of famous planes and jets.

Some of the remote control plane kits come almost fully assembled so you don’t need to spend a lot of time putting it together.  You can start having fun right when you put them out of the box.  It might take some practice before you can fly them perfectly but with time you will become an expert.  And you will always find time to fly to enjoy your new hobby.

The Brushless Motor used in many of today Electric Power Airplanes is a great source of power. When installing the motor you will need to connect it to the ESC. The ESC will have three wire coming from it to be connected to the three leads of the Brushless Electric Motor. The wires from the ESC are usually all the same color, this sometimes confuses people on how they should be connected to the three colored wires coming from the Brushless Motor.

The best way to connect them is with gold plated bullet connectors. Just solder the male half to either ESC or Motor, and the female half of the connector to the other device. Connect your wires and try the motor for the correct rotation. If the motor runs the wrong way for your current installation, all you have to do to reverse it is change any two wires of the three that you connected. By changing any pair of wires it reverses the motor, it is very simple to do and allows you to install the motor and ESC, then easily change the motors rotation by just changing a couple of wires. Be sure to use heat shrink tubing on the connectors to protect them from shorting out. It is simple so just give it a try.
