This old UMX Turbo Timber has had a rough life… plenty of crashes, repairs and hard landings So I finally stopped talking about rebuilding it and just did it. Everything from the old airframe got transplanted into a brand new fuselage and wing - servos, electronics, lights, the lot. I even cut my own vinyl graphics and added a simple landing gear fix after getting sick of replacing them. This is the true maiden of the rebuild. A few CG tweaks, long grass takeoff, and thankfully… she flies beautifully. Really happy with how this one turned out but here's a pro tip for you: I have learnt that it is cheaper to purchase a brand new plane than it is to replace all the bits and pieces ... by heaps! :-)
UMX Turbo Timber Rebuild and First Flight
We did NOT expect it to fly this well ... This Christmas present build really surprised us how good it was! For a rubber band glider, this thing can actually FLY. We think it definitely needed adult help to build but a great project with my Grandson Toby

We made this paper plane following a tic toc channel @foldable.flight and we are very happy with them! Let us know if you want more of Toby test flying more paper planes. You can even comment and leave us suggestions to make and test fly.

To be fair, it was the dog's fault and I didn't hit it, my Radian Pro did. Ruined my perfect landing LOL
"I can't believe you hit my dog!" - with that #rcplane!
Back out with the Parkzone Radian Pro for round two – this time in the evening breeze! After a calm maiden flight earlier in the day, I wanted to see how this RC glider handled a bit more wind! With the sun going down and the chill setting in, the Radian Pro showed off its soaring skills, picking up every gust rolling over the hills. The extra breeze made things trickier (especially when it came to landing), but it was a whole lot of fun figuring out rudder vs. aileron and flap use in windy conditions Even with the wind, and me having very little experience, the Radian Pro proves it’s a relaxing yet capable RC glider. #RCPlane #RadianPro #GliderFlying #RCGlider #MaidenFlight #Parkzone #Soaring
Windy Evening Flight with My Parkzone Radian Pro #RCPlane #Glider
On this day, I took my Parkzone Radian Pro out for its maiden flight (for me!) - and it’s also my first time ever flying an RC glider. Unlike my usual powered RC planes, this one is all about smooth, quiet soaring, catching updrafts, and relaxing in the sky. This Radian Pro was gifted to me by my neighbor (thanks Brett!), and despite its age, it still flies beautifully. With flaps, ailerons, and incredible glide time, it’s a whole new RC flying experience compared to the other #rcplanes I usually fly. This flight has me hooked - I can see why people love gliders!

Maiden flight of my new (to me) Parkzone Radian Pro #rcplane
Just finished repairing this amazing plane and put her down in a tree. The nose broke off again but after the inital shock, I will re-build! I made this video to help me deal with the pain 😢 Subscribe to our channel so you can see the follow up video ... again LOL
