Hi,

I have been flying for some time, and have had various parkzone and the like, but now I really fancy a nice classic bi plane.

I would prefer a bind and fly or an artf, as my building skills are not that good - yet - so anyone gave any ideas.

It must be electric, but other than that, the sky is the limit!!!!

Might be a good idea to go to wh smiths and buy a copy of quiet &electric flight magazine should have what you want in there

Anglian Model Centre produce their own 'CAP Kit' range which has a selection of R/C biplane kits not often seen such as the Fairey Swordfish

They aren't going to get any better by buying an ARTF model

You seem to be implying you'd like to improve your building skills? So why not look through one of the magazines and buy a plan for a very simple depron or balsa model? I knocked together a depron sheet/carbon spar electric model for next to nothing (didn't even have a plan, just loosely based it on an existing design). It flies fine, and was a good step to better things. I'm currently building a press to make some carbon-fibre skinned foam wings for a twist-wing glider I built. The original wings were glass-fibre, but weren't that good. The carbon ones will be better: you live and learn!

There's nothing like flying a model you've built from a pile of materials!

Hi.

You are quite right.
I should have mentioned that I build really simple depron planes, and would love- at some stage- to build a proper guillows kit to cover with tissue and dope.
I'm just back in the uk from living abroad, and just fancy something to go and fly rather than having to build!!
Mainly as I'm sure that the other half will cotton on and have me decorating the lounge!!

I use banana hobby and hobby king for electric planes!

I have the huuuge B2 spirit and an F-15, both excellent!

Tried to find it earlier, but got the spelling wrong - I thought it was E-Flyte for some daft reason.
