Buying Cheap RC Airplanes Supplies

When I purchased my first RC Airplane and took it for its first flight, what a disaster! Taking off was simple, but trying to bring this thing down without crashing was the major problem. I didn't want to crash this thing because I spent a total of $120.00 plus my time building. I had a guy from my local flying club to take it out and make sure everything was trimmed properly. He made it look simple but, I was sure wrong. So I have here a couple of tricks to save on your purchase of your RC Airplane and some tips on how to better improve your flying skills.

I made a deal with my local hobby shop to plaster his company name all over my plane. I used decals on the wings, fuselage and my case. I had to fly with this on all the time for the whole season, and I got my plane C-130 Herc. for $15.00. The decal on the plane was his website. I don't know how many hits he received, but people were asking me all sorts of questions. It turned out, that the people I told were going into his shop and asking for the same deal. This was how he got customers into his store.

Want your plane to look like its in turbulence while your flying? This technique is for the most experienced flyers. All you need is an old pill bottle and water. Check out this site for great ideas and RC airplane special effects.
