May 23, 2013 18Modelflight are pleased to announce the latest RC quadcopter from Blade, the Nano QX. This is one small heli, but it is big on features.

April 02, 2013 61Here is a review that will win over the hearts of scale RC fans. Chuck T. Seeker took his ParkZone SE5a for another flight and was able to put together a video review. This RC plane has high historic value. The original SE5a was a legendary plane of the World War I era, flown by aces from America and Britain. Interestingly, the ParkZone SE5a also has great historical value for Chuck. He first maidened this plane 20 months ago in July 2011 and in this demo film, Chuck revisits this classic model. You can watch this review video below:

February 22, 2013 51It was another fun night of indoor flying on Thursday. A crowd of pilots and spectators gathered to enjoy a variety of RC planes as they took to the air inside ETSA Stadium. Some of the models on display included the ParkZone T-28 Trojan. This brilliant scale plane's flight characteristics were just as good as its apperance. Its smooth takeoffs and landings were matched by its graceful performance in the air. As you can see in the video footage we captured on the night, the Trojan maneouvers easily, making it a great choice for intermediate-level pilots. Please note, though, that the video below shows the Ultra Micro version of the Trojan. Unfortunately, this version is

January 31, 2013 60Aerobatic pilots, this one's for you. The Carbon Z Splendor from E-Flite is a fantastic new RC plane that we were lucky enough to preview earlier this week. The Splendor was designed by F3A World Aerobatic Champion Quique Somenzini. Somenzini ensured that this RC plane offered everything you need to perform incredible precision flying. The Carbon Z Splendor is constructed from a Carbon-Z wing and fuselage structure. Putting this plane is very straightforward, thanks to E-Flite's simple bolt-on assembly. Just make sure you have enough room for

January 31, 2013 43Everything about this vehicle suggests brute force. The Vaterra 2012 Camaro is a striking addition to Modelflight's range of RC cars. Following on from their 1969 Camaro RS, Vaterra's RC recreation of Chevrolet's 2012 model embodies the same spirit of the RS, but with a modern cutting edge. Modelflight was fortunate enough to get a sneak peek of the 2012 Camaro. As such, we managed to film a

January 31, 2013 52Feast your eyes on the Vaterra 1969 Camaro RC car! Vaterra have brilliantly recreated Chevrolet's classic. The scale detail of this muscle car is extraordinary and its performance is equal. On the outside, the Vaterra Camaro has a menacing appeal. Its sleek body, low-profile tyres and large-diameter wheels give it a striking appearance. Powering this beast is a superior Dynamite power system. Combined with its shaft-driven 4WD, the Camaro RS gives you jaw-dropping performance. On
