Stryker 180 Vs Sbach 342

Thanks to chuck for sending us this video of the Parkzone Stryker 180 and Sbach 342....here's what he had to say about them:

"What a great weekend of weather we had, managed to get out and maiden my new Sbach 342 and it flew great straight out of the box, really like this plane it's a beauty, i also took the Stryker 180 to do a compare video, both planes are just amazing, but are 2 completely different planes, the Stryker is a pure fun plane taking it up and seeing what you can make it do, with quick recoveries from moves that didn't work.  I'm going to have trouble giving this one back haha i have been flying the pants off it and reckon i am now ready to try some 5 mistakes high 100% rates to get even more fun out of this beauty, it really is a plane that i think will sell out quick!"

NEW! Hawker Hurricane 25e from E-flite

 

Introducing the E-flite Hawker Hurricane 25e RC Plane available in BNF and PNP, is a bigger, more powerful warbird with classic scale details and features.

No fighter deserves more credit for saving Britain in its darkest hour than the Hawker Hurricane airplane. Its simple construction allowed it to be manufactured in large numbers and it could be quickly repaired in the field using basic tools. Despite being slower than the vaunted Spitfire, the Hurricane could out turn many of the enemy fighters it faced and bring its eight Browning machine guns to bear with devastating effect. This surprising maneuverability combined with its sheer numbers are two big reasons the humble Hurricane shot down more enemy aircraft in the Battle of Britain than any other Allied fighter. Now you can experience the thrill of flying the Hurricane with this remarkably scale Plug-N-Play or Bind-N-Fly park flyer from E-flite. Constructed of tough Z-Foam™ material, the Hurricane 25e RC Plane comes out of the box with a high-output brushless power system, digital servos and functional flaps already installed; BNF models with also have a Spektrum DSM receiver installed. Even the authentic RAF No. 1 Squadron paint scheme has been applied. All that’s left to complete is a few minutes of final assembly. Then, just install the receiver and battery pack of your choice and fly. You also get the option of adding E-flite 15-25 Size 90-Degree Electric Retracts (EFLG200 – sold separately). Installation is easy and when you’re done you’ll have a unique, scale warbird that will be the envy of the flying field.
