Seawind rc airplane questions?

1.Where is it cheapest ?
2.do you put on wheels or does it come with them ?
3.is it a good rc plane ?
4.Is it worth the money ?

Thank you in advance
i know this section is for REAL planes but i didnt get anything in hobbies and crafts so im trying here :-)
1. Internet. You'd have to poke around for cheapest site.
2. It includes wheels but they are not assembled.
3. Probably not if it's your first, but if you're a serious hobbier I'd say yes.
4. I'd say so, you have to be at least a little passionate about RC planes though.

my rc airplane motor wont work but works after a period of time or until i do something?

i replaced the motor and speed control but it still does the same thing what is wrong with it i have the flyzone cessna 182 skylane rtf 2.4 ghz model but it wont work and sometimes it wont work at all the battery is fully charged

If you have a receiver battery check to see if it's fully charged. If your speed control or any other components have a fuse link check & see if they are blown & replace if necessary. If you haven't already check all plugs & see they are in the correct port & the wires have not dislodged from the casing.

Can someone help me with where to get an RC airplane controller?

I need help finding a controller for an rc plane I have been planning on buying. It need three channels, and also, it needs to be for an affordable price such as 10-15 dollars, but a bit more would be okay. If you can find one, I will be very grateful.

Here is the link to the plane

DId you see the link to buy the radio that goes with it? That is going to be by far the most affordable radio. I left the URL just in case. RC flying is expensive as junk.

How will a crooked vertical stabilizer affect the flight of a model RC airplane?

The vertical stabilizer is like 10 degrees off. Will this affect flight and if so how will it and how much? Will constant rudder/aileron/elevator trim be able to correct this? Lastly will the plane be flyable like this?

Thanks

It won't help anything. !0 degrees is a lot to try to fix with trim. I'd suggest surgery to correct the error before flight. I've had 1/2 degree errors cause more problems than the trim on my TX could overcome. RC er since '76.

Um, pick the Xbox 360 bundle. You will have WAY more fun than flying an airplane back and forth.

Am I allowed to fly RC airplane in baseball field when nobody is using it?

And is one baseball field large enough for a electric RC plane?

Friends used the neighbourhood parks for that when I was a kid. the parks I am thinking about had two or three baseball fields, the one with two had an adjoining school yard.
I don't think anyone complained as long as it was done during a time of day when people tended not to be sleeping.

where can i download freely the rc airplane books and magazines ?

i have participated in a rc airplne contest and i want to design my own plane please help me in finding rc books,magazines without money please.

You're probably not going to find a lot of free magazines and books. However, there are lots of sources on line. One place to poke around is rcgroups.com. You will find, for instance, a lot of designs for simple "foamies" there. Try to do a bit of research BEFORE asking a lot of questions and you will get a better reception there. It also helps to capitalize and punctuate. That makes it easier for other people to read your question.

P.S It's likely, if you're in the USA, that your local library will have one or two appropriate books.
