We are only a few days into 2013 and there have already been some exciting new videos on our YouTube channel. Our film crew hit the ground running to capture Mike reviewing the brand new Parkzone VisionAire. Fortunately for us, this RC plane had only just arrived at our office, so Mike had a chance to unbox the VisionAire too. As you will see, Mike describes on how the Quique Somenzini-designed plane gives sport flyers the chance to become 3D pilots. This video focuses on the impressive wing and tail design of the VisionAire that allows you to perform exciting 3D manoeuvres with ease. Mike's review of this remote control plane can be seen below:

We are pleased to announce that a wide range of new products from Dualsky have recently arrived at Modelflight. The most exciting of these is Dualskys new Hornet 460 Quadcopter. After a highly-anticipated lead-up, this RC quadcopter is now available on our website. If you would like to learn more about this product, we have put a lot of information online, including a blog post and a video manual. Our YouTube channel also features a flight demo of the Hornet 460. You can even watch in-flight footage from a camera strapped to the quadcopter!
Our friend Chuck was lucky enough to receive a surprise Chrismas present this year... in the shape of a new Parkzone release; the Parkzone Archer.
Here, he brings us the unboxing/review of the Piper Archer. "...i think when you see this plane you are going to fall in love as it is a good copy of a classic plane. I'll show those that don't know how to put it together and bind your Tx to it..." Chuck
Building on their reputation for excellent scale models, the Parkzone Archer RC plane from ParkZone brilliantly recreates the full-scale light civilian aeroplane built by Piper Aircraft. This fantastic Z-foam remote control plane offers superb scale details, including panel lines and simulated corrugated flight surfaces.
You will also notice a modern trim scheme and tricycle gear for easier ground handling. This ParkZone
2013 got off to a stellar start with the release of several brand new products on Modelflight's website. One that we had been eagerly awaiting was the UM P-40 Warhawk from
Well dear readers, although our final indoor gathering for 2012 began fairly quietly at ETSA Netball Stadium perhaps due to it being a quite languid evening and our fliers being a little loath to leave their air-conditioning, for some unknown reason, we seemed to have a larger-than-normal group of young people and due to our friend Chuck T. having more than just a mop of hair on his head, he showed excellent forethought and a great relationship with the littlies. However, more on that shortly firstly let me mention our latest dad (in our midst of course) and I speak of Michael whose lovely wife presented him with a young gentleman and, no doubt, a future flier at ETSA Park. At just five weeks, I believe that he already has excellent control and touch of his joy stick and we look forward to bigger and better things from the young man. Whilst I could not show you a photo of the baby, my first shot is of the proud dad. We all join in, Michael, in congratulating you and your wife on the
