The HobbyZone Firebird XL | | | | | Now real RC airplane action isn't just for those who have hundreds of hours and hundreds of dollars to spend building and tuning their aircraft. Introducing the HobbyZone Firebird XL, the perfect way to get into model aviation. If you've ever wanted to fly a real model aircraft, but thought it was too hard, too time-consuming, or too expensive, then you've got to check out the Firebird XL. It comes with everything you need including a 2-channel radio with variable speed control. You'll have the Firebird XL assembled just minutes after you open the box. Just position the wing braces, strap on the wings, add the decals, charge the battery and watch the included instructional video and you'll be set to make your first flight!  Everything you need all in one box! The HobbyZone Firebird XL includes: the aircraft, the transmitter, a battery pack, a charger, the instruction manual, and an instructional video tape. All you supply is 8 AA batteries for the transmitter.

hi, my name is jay and i am 17, i have just recently bought a
FIREBIRD II and i am verry happy with it! i have crashed it alot and it has stood up to the damage that a normal rc plane
would die from, i am amazed that it just keeps on flying. i think i will be
buying the fighterbird as well. there is one thing i think you might think about
fixing on the models if you allready havent and that is that when it crashes the
wing comes out of place quite easilly and the motor gets thrown forward from
momentem maby a few ajustments on the designe of the plane around the wing and
motor area. but over all guys i give this plane a 10 outa 10 well done!:D
Regards J
IEM: Thanks
Jay! The way the wings and motor are held on prevents damage
during the rougher landings.
Hello, My name Is Fred. I am 54 years
old and my son David is 20. We have been flying rc planes for the past
4 years. We have better than 30 planes in flying condition all of
which are gas engined, from fun fly to large scale. There are about 10
guys in the club who fly strictly electric and are really into it.
They have just about everything imaginable. Although I'm
impressed with some of these electrics, I really didn't want to take
the time to build and research (motors,flight packs, speed
controls, ect). Last Sunday at the clubs flying field one of my
freinds Don (who ones his own Hobby Shop) brought a aerobird to the
field. As soon as I seen it fly, I couldn't wait to get my own.
The big payoff for me is I don't have to build and research (its all
there, ready out of the box) and I can continue building the
planes awaiting on the shelf and I don't always have the time to
tavel 50 miles round trip to the field during the work week. I have a
large open field just accross the street not large enough to fly
gas.There are many evenings I would like to fly,but don't have ample
time. Now I just walk across the street and I'm flying. I am
really having a blast with the aerobird. Its a lot of fun to fly.
Much to my amazement my wife said she would like to have one (She has
never shown interest in rc flying before). Went to the Hobby Shop and
purchased two more for my wife and son. Can't wait to get the
high performance upgrade. Its on order.

Firebird XL with the new Fighterbird Wing? (from: hobbyworks.com) "The results were nothing less than phenomenal. With the Fighterbird wing in place, the XL is faster, more responsive, and penetrates the wind much better. When I tested it, each flight was better than the last (it did require re-trimming). On the fourth flight of the day, it spent 20 minutes in a thermal with the motor off before I brought it down to low altitude, where I shot three consecutive touch-and-goes followed by a perfect landing on the center stripe of DC/RC's runway!"
