Introduction
The HobbyZone Mini AeroScout makes learning to fly RC airplanes in more places and smaller spaces easy and fun! Inspired by the extremely popular AeroScout S, its "mini" size makes it a perfect smaller trainer model that can be flown in large parks, soccer fields, football fields and other suitable spaces where larger models can't typically be flown. It features incredibly durable EPP construction with the same pusher power configuration as its larger counterpart for improved safety plus better propeller and motor protection that makes it the most durable HobbyZone airplane yet! This makes it possible for first-time RC pilots to learn to fly successfully with one of the most durable hobby-quality trainers ever for less than 100 bucks. It's also extremely easy to assemble and repair if needed because – unlike other similar class models – the major airframe parts including the wing and tail simply bolt or snap into place…no glue or tape required! Best of all it's a Ready-To-Fly (RTF) aircraft so it includes a controller/transmitter equipped with 2.4GHz technology, AA batteries for the transmitter, plus a rechargeable LiPo flight battery and convenient USB charger. That means there's nothing extra to buy or provide so you can fly!
And the fun doesn't stop after you learn how to fly! It's lightweight yet durable airframe is equipped with a powerful electric motor that delivers long flight times and provides plenty of speed and power to perform aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls and more. That means the Mini AeroScout is a model even experienced RC pilots will appreciate and enjoy flying – and can also use to teach others to fly.

Value and quality for a starter/trainer plane.

This plane is way underpowered. We could not take off in the same space as other planes we own. Took it to our local hobby shop for troubleshooting and they refused to look at it. They said they stopped carrying this model because of others complaining about its weakness. Do not waste your money on it.

It is a great buy. No ailerons is a negative for me. Also too little to fly in even the lightest wind. I exchanged for the full size AeroScout. 1.2m. Way better for a beginner as you can fly in moderate wind w all 4 channels. It handles the wind much better. For what the mini is, I would give it a 5 star based on quality and price. But again it's just too light and small.

This is a nice little R/C aircraft to fly at football fields, and parks. I get 10-15 minute flight out of it by being conservative with power. I recommend buying 3 or 4 extra batteries as charge time is long. Some precautions though: No R/C plane is easy to fly for a beginner. It is best flown in winds of less than 5 MPH.

Biggest pos rtf there is. For a few dollars more you could get a better plane that actually has flaps. Complete waste. Absolutely do not buy.

This plane is easy to fly out the box, you may have to use some adjustments on the craft, 3 channel, good for the price.

I was going to but the full/big version, but after watching endless YouTube videos, and reading local laws against drones and "small unmanned aircraft," I decided to go with the Mini AeroScout.I only actually flew once for about 45 seconds, and after a couple more tries, the styrofoam plane cracked in half.This was a xmas gift for my son, I even bought extra batteries so that we could get over 30 mins of flying.Nope! I spent all in about $150 ... for 45 seconds of flying. Total waste of money. The styrofoam is very weak and cannot take a mild crash.Buy a different plane, a stronger one, or get a Traxxas RC car (those are fun), but I wouldn't spend my money on this.

I bought the larger one first and that was a mistake. I should have bought this on first. The full sized should also be a tail dragger.

Buen producto resistenteSolo que el timón de profundidad tiene poca respuesta al parecer el alambre del servo es muy delgado y se dobla. En vuelo es poco estable hay que hacer correcciones constantemente para mantenerlo en el aire, tengo un bimotor Duet que es mucho más estable. Desearia un motor mas potente ya que no puede pelear contra un viento ligero por lo que prefiero volarlo con viento en calma.
