Welcome to Hooked On RC Airplanes!

Flying RC airplanes is more than a hobby, it's a passion!

Flying radio control airplanes really is an awesome experience. You can feel the adrenaline that surges throughout your body as the fate of your pride and joy lies in the steady movements of your fingers. You feel your heart thumping as your model screams by the runway, inverted, at speeds upwards of 60 MPH! Many times I am actually shaking after landing my airplane safely!

You begin to obsess on when you can get your bird in the air again in order to get that next fix of adrenaline! You spend hours in the garage building, tweaking, and preparing your airplane for the next flight!

This hobby is much more than just building and flying model airplanes. It’s about comradery. There is something very special about the mentality of RC pilots and their passion for sharing their knowledge with others. I am constantly learning new and exciting things about various aspects of RC flying, and I want to share this knowledge with you.

Whether you're new to the hobby or just curious to see what flying RC airplanes is all about then I suggest starting with the Getting Started link. Here you will find answered to most all of the basics questions in regards to beginner planes, radio selection, and where to get assistance from experienced RC pilots in your area.
