Hi,

Just wanna know why fighter planes are not common in the RC world?

Is there any LHS that I can get RC fighter planes as a beginner?


Thanks
Janson

reason being fighter planes are low wing aircrafts, therefore they are most unstable and fly quite fast for any beginner to handle.

2nd reason would be because of its power source.
Most fighter planes are either duct fan or turbine. Duct fan aircrafts have less thrust than their propellor counterpart. And turbine is no beginner plane. Price tag(around 7k++) and the physical size of one will scare any beginner

The same reasons as the real jet pilots; they don't start off flying jets as well.

Can these planes do aerobatics? Or they are just for fast flying?
