There has been a huge increase in the availability of electric aircraft recently. The Chinese have started to make cheap entry level aircraft that fly very well. The range kept by us has been tested at Gauteng altitudes and all fly very well.

Beware of the cheap Supermarket type aircraft available almost everywhere. Many do not fly well at Gauteng altitudes and they do not keep spare parts! Our aircraft have all been tested by us and they do fly well and we stock all available spares.

 

We are keeping the Eflite motors and aircraft.

See also the Dynam and Nine Eagles pages for their aircraft.
