HAWK'S WORK 2 Channel Airplane, F-22 RC Plane Ready to Fly, 2.4 GHz Remote Control Airplane, Glider for Kids & Beginners

My son loves flying this plane. It’s easy to control, fun taking off. Customer service when needed is very responsive and helpful

I bought this for my 11 year old son. He had never flown an RC plane before and I know how they can be easily damaged. But he has had great fun with this. There was an unexpected breeze during his first flight and it landed in a tree, but once we recovered from that experience, it has been fantastic. The controls are easy to use, take off is easy if you just throw it like a paper airplane, and flight time is longer than I expected - He says he's getting 20-30 minutes per battery. It comes with 2 batteries, so that means about an hour of fun. The plane itself is EXTREMELY light so (a) do not fly it of there is ANY wind and (b) rest-assured that even if it hits something or someone, it won't cause any damage - The nose is light rubber and just collapses on contact and the rest of the plane is as light as styrofoam. One final tip - Tape the nose onto the plane as it tends to fall off. We lost the original nose in thick grass, but we were able to purchase 2 replacements from the supplier (who have a great support website). I highly recommend it.

Flew very well though the wheels are quite light and not held robustly to the main body so kept falling off and getting lost (either the build should be stronger or extra wheels should be provided). Tip: fly in very open spaces or risk losing it entirely as it doesn't come with a tracker.

So I bought this for my son but it’s not really suitable for younger kids despite the age guide!. Firstly it’s very light and extremely sensitive to control inputs. Similar to a non powered chuck plane. In a light wind this can make keeping the plane under control / flying level and avoiding it going astray challenging!. It’s a whole lot of fun especially if you’re used to RC in general. But for younger kids / complete amateurs it could well equal a total loss of the plane. Wind tends to take the nose upwards and this can quickly lead to the plane ranging a long long way off requiring a quick dump of the throttle / a gentle coaxing / throttling back on / gliding it back round. So not exactly easy for kids!. Fortunately it’s still fun for spectators to watch. You need a big open field with little to no wind and as few trees as possible!. Ours ditched in a tree and I was lucky to be able to retrieve it. In conclusion it’s great fun!!!! Enjoy.

My son enjoyed this for a few weeks but after that, controller went faulty so wouldn’t recommend. Bit expensive for only a few weeks of use…

**Update: Hawk's Work reached out to me and replaced the plane for my son. The replacement flies really well and he is very happy with it. Excellent customer service! Bought this for my son for his 14th birthday. He has had a few cheaper RC planes before this one, so he knows how to fly reasonably well. First time he flew this, simply in a straight line, it barrel rolled and crashed, making it unusable. He possibly just got a bad one.

Is a good plain

Bought this 6 weeks ago, and needed one quickly, so had to buy more expensive version of the same thing due to delivery, so I wouldn't rate it as good value for money. It's very light weight and easy to fly for a beginner - the lack of control kinda makes it easier to fly once you master what control you do have. Nose wheel bends out of shape very quickly due to landings and it remains to be seen how long the rest will last, but been decent fun for a few flying sessions. Great way to get kids into RC planes without spending a fortune.
