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!

The firebird xl RTF is the new version of the firebird II which is an easy to fly beginners radio control  (r/c) electric powered trainer.
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.
 

Easy Controls
The firebird xl RTF is the new version of the firebird II which is an easy to fly beginners radio control  (r/c) electric powered trainer.Flying a HobbyZone Firebird XL is a lot like driving a radio control car. You're virtually guaranteed a successful, fun filled RC flying adventure. Thanks to its innovative Flight-Trak control system, your Firebird XL can be flown smoothly and accurately with just two simple controls: steering and throttle. The throttle provides for cruise, climb and descent; the steering means you literally "steer your airplane" left and right through the sky.
Long Flying Time

Landing Gear

The firebird xl RTF is the new version of the firebird II which is an easy to fly beginners radio control  (r/c) electric powered trainer.Launch with a rolling take-off and shoot touch-and-gos.

Extra Stable Wings
The firebird xl RTF is the new version of the firebird II which is an easy to fly beginners radio control  (r/c) electric powered trainer.Dual wing braces for the polyhedral wing and a light- weight composite spar rod. These work together to substantially strengthen the wing and help prevent any warping. The wing is further strengthened by a factory mounted wing cap on the trailing edge that keeps the rubber bands from digging into the foam on the wing.
Canopy Stays Closed
The firebird xl RTF is the new version of the firebird II which is an easy to fly beginners radio control  (r/c) electric powered trainer.The Firebird XL features a latch and rubber band that holds the canopy shut in flight.
Powerful Engine

In several of our test flights, a straight-out climb at full throttle for about 45 seconds would put the Firebird XL at about 600 feet and almost out of sight.

Subject: RE: Customer receipt - 8726736

Thank you very much for the F-27 stryker arrived in perfect condition after a trip half way round the world to the UK. I was a little worried that it would turn up damaged or get lost in the post but it arrived as planed in an amazing 10 days, unboxed and ready to fly in less than 15 minutes and the hardest thing to do was find somewhere to store the empty box All I have to do now is learn to crash it

Many thanks s Foston
