The smallest ready-to-fly RC plane yet, the Preserver Mini Aircraft is packed with high-tech electronics and engineering innovation, yet is is quite simply the easiest model to get into the air that I have seen. The Preserver Mini Aircraft is ready to go, out of the box; you need only drop 8 alkaline batteries into the transmitter, fast-charge the included flight pack and install it in the model-from box to ball field in 5 minutes!
Power and control systemThe Preserver Mini Aircraft uses small twin motors for power and steering. At full power, both motors run at the same speed; when you input a turn, one of the motors slows down. No moving control surfaces, no trimming; what could be easier? Even folks who have never before held a transmitter can fly the Preserver Mini Aircraft; when we were trying this out for the first time at the gym, even the high school girls basketball team wanted to get in on the action, and they had a blast flying the plane around the ball field without any help.
TransmitterThe mini comfortable radio controller has a built-in field charger and indication status lights for the AA batteries.
ChargingThe fast-charger that's built into the transmitter offers and fast-charge jack that charges the NiMH battery of the airplane in less than 3-5 minutes. This field-charging feature is extremely convenient, but because it doesn't have a voltage cutoff or timer, you need to keep a close watch on the battery you're charging. This is very important because if the battery is connected to the charger too long, it becomes extremely hot and could melt the wires or burn you. A good way to avoid this entirely is to hold the battery while you're charging it so you can feel how warm it gets. The battery should only be warm-not hot-to the touch.
The battery is very easy to install in the model; just plug it in, snap the hatch back on, and you're ready to fly again. Remember, though, that the model is "on" as soon as you plug the battery in, so it's best not to do this until you're ready to fly and the transmitter has been turned on.
The Preserver Mini Aircraft is truly a go-anywhere, fly-anytime RC plane, and its stable flight characteristics make it an instant hit with everyone who flies it
