Would like to thank to our friendly local flier for giving away one of his used FPV plane as my first step towards flying an aeroplane. I made my successful first flight on FPV glider plane "Hobby King - BUSY BEE" without any problem only just minor noob on landing of course. Flying an a glider plane seem to be more relaxing and forgiving than my helicopter. I can enjoy much of the sky scenery with this. When i received this plane it was just bare kit, with servo, broken front gear and mess up physical appearance. I've paid extra for the brushless motor which is a good deal, I took two nights to refurbish and mods the aeroplane back to its best condition and finally it looks good on its fourth maiden flight in very gloomy windy morning...still the landing was a rough ride but acceptable.

Despite having overall almost bad review over the internet about this pusher type glider plane i still think it has a decent handling yet i have no problem flying nor not much complain about how it flies...most probably i flew my helicopter pretty much manouver like an aeroplane which makes this flying more easier than i thought it would be. It flew sweet and just need to spent time to get to know it before i could tame into a friendly horse. Between my heli and this plane i have no intention to segregate them because both seem to have different role and ability in its very own field of expertise. Helicopter is thrilling + adrenaline while plane are mentally relaxing and sight seeing joy. Having both of them flying machine every afternoon put a huge smile for eternity. I will post some on board cam videos on this glider once i found a sweet spot to place it on the chassis.
