Building your own Remote Control Jet

hese toys are as close as you can get to the real deal. They are fast, powerful and sound like a real fighter jet. They run on the same principle and at 7 to 10 feet, are the largest radio controlled models available today. How do you go about getting your hands on, and creating, your own radio controlled jet airplane? Lets find out!

There are few things more powerful and realistic, in the world of toys, than radio controlled (RC) jets. Like real fighter jets that are built on the cutting edge of technology, RC jets too are at the cutting edge of toy-world science. Containing a model jet engine that is based on the real-life version, RC jets are a huge challenge, even for those who have built them.

If you do want to get into the world of RC jets, it is imperative that you have prior experience in making, flying and maintaining regular forms of radio controlled models. With RC jets, you hit a different level altogether, in every aspect. Without prior experience, it might be very difficult for you to put everything together.

The Growth Stage

As a person interested in radio controlled toys, RC Jets are the final stage of evolution. You cannot reach this stage unless you pass through a few levels before it. While there is just one distinct line of separation, experienced hobbyists will tell you that from the first level to the last, there are enough and more jumps to take, before you can take on the really big boys.

For beginners, there are RC Trainer Jets to help you get through the acclimatization phase. These jets are easier to build but are made along the same principles. This allows you to make exactly what you need without having to go through the complex build procedure of a real RC jet.

Once you have learnt how to build and fly an RC trainer jet, you can move onto the maintenance bit.

With all these aspects under control, you can move beyond trainers and get onto the real things. However, you need to know that even in the non-trainer variety, there are various levels. While these levels may not be clearly demarcated at all times, you are sure to find something in a progressive manner.

Once you have moved on to the serious RC jet levels, it’s time to take your hobby to the next level.
