Steve Fuqua's Opinion of Wing Dragon

Grading: 1 to 10, 10 is best (Check out our grading system!)


AT3301 Wing Dragon Beginner's RC Airplane Outfit:
Grade:
   
1. What is the MAIN reason that this outfit is good for a beginner?  
This model is complete in the box, with very little to assemble and flies great. It is everything desirable for a first RC model.  
2. Instructions and/or plans:
9

The model includes written instructions as well as a 20 minute Video-CD (VCD) showing assembly and first flights. To view the VCD run the file AVSEQ01.DAT with Windows Media Player. Although the spoken words are Chinese it makes no difference as the video clearly shows assembly of the model.

 
3. Assembly difficulty:
10
The word difficulty can't be used when describing assembly of Wing-Dragon. This is as easy as it gets. Take your time, do not get in a hurry. Watch the VCD and read through the written plan sheet.  
4. How easy is it to fly without help?
10

Wing-Dragon is incredibly stable and first-flight friendly. The VCD shows how to take-off from smooth ground and also how easy a hand-launch is if you do not have a smooth surface runway.

 
5. How repairable is it in case of damage during first flights?
10

When you crash Wing-Dragon you will find it is very durable. The styro-foam wing is easily glued with epoxy. Should a part need replacing, spare parts are readily available and reasonably priced.

 
6. Overall recommendation:
10
This model is awesome for the beginner to RC flying.  
7. Assembly time: 15 MINUTES - (An honest estimate for a beginner)  
Assembly will take about 15 minutes after you have read and watched the instructions.
