The X-Twin range has a newcomer! The Acrobat not only features the same impact resistant material and 3 models to fly together, this incredible new addition can also take off and land from the ground and perform impressive loops and sensation stunts. o try to fly in a large, open and empty space, and get a bit of altitude before you try a loop-the-loop, or it'll be a loop-the-crunch. It's the first time someone's produced such a lightweight, tine and controllable acrobatic plane at such a remarkably cheap price. Chocks away and practice to join the Red Arrows. You'll need to practice a lot, they're really quite good.

  • Two independent speed controllers for steering precision.
  • An elevator function enables loop-the loop and stunt moves.
  • An integrated remote control and charger.

 bargain beginer plane

| | See all atomicweasle's reviews (2)

iv been flyin rc planes for a while when this appeared on the market i was very sceptical. i got one not really expecting much, but only to find its awesome.
for starters its mega cheap which is always good
its ideal for people who dont knw how to fly an rc plane only turn control an elevator and throttle
it is virtually indestructable (i crashed it into my wifes oncomming car she wasnt happy!!)
its cheap to upkeep new props are a few quid
it takes off from the ground which 99%of cheap rc planes cant do and looks so cool
once you adjust its trim it does wot u tell it!

its like most things u practice with it an it becomes more than just a toy and youll be dive bombin the neighbours after only a few flights

ok it needs a calm day outside to fly or a large sports center, and for some reason my cats love to chew it but other than that its cool it looks good and its mega cheap ideal for everyone and if you have a couple of mates get them to buy a different colour (different bandwidths) and have a bit of dogfightin action or be cheesy and do a budget airshow for the family

 not for the kids

the first impression of the x twin acrobat is that its not going to last long, the stock photo of the plane makes it look plastic when infact it is made out of polysterene , it is hard to controll at first but but once you get the hang of it it is quite impressive , speed distance and allround fun make the product worth the price

 GREAT

a great little plane, when it first arrived in a big box i was realy exited but when i unwraped it i found out its actually quite small, but dont let the size put you off, i flew it in the park and i was amazed. it flies realy well, does loop-de-loops. i crashed it a couple of times but still good as new. easy to fly and lightweight, i found out that the elevator uses magnets to work to make it even more lightweight. i then showed it to my mate and now he's got one on the way to him.we should be able to do stunt shows together.
this plane is great fun and i highly recomend you to get this plane.
(remember to use brand new batteries in the control, otherwise the charging doesnt work)

 A bit dissapointing-Although not bad

Its not quite as good as it looks in the promotional video, It does fly quite well but its hard to control and the controls are slow to respond and also the turing controls are either fully on or fully off there is no gradient inbetween. I also found that it went out of range quite quicky. But hey what do you want for £17.99 Its cleary just a kids toy. If you an adult buy a real rc plane.

 Top Fun @ Cheap Price

For the money this has gotta be the best RC plane out there.

Its got rear rudder control so u can do loops & raise & lower your pitch while flying & do banked turns!

the engines are higher power than the normal Silverlit planes around this price range.

Very happy with the plane & had loads of fun, dont forget ppl to wait till there is NO WIND to fly as it ends up ruining your fun if its abit windy.

Dont give up & wait for a clear day.

The daddy of Silverlit planes by far, i have 2 silverlit planes but this is the best fun!!!!
