POWERUP 4.0 The Next-Generation Smartphone Controlled Paper Airplane Kit, RC Controlled. Simple to Fly with Autopilot & Gyro Stabilizer.

Expensive and poor quality. My son broke after only two hours of play.

I have a bit of time off work, and wanted to buy myself a new toy to have some fun with. I love to tinker, so this seemed perfect. Once I got a decent plane folded and mounted, it ended up being the most fun I’ve had for ages! I was itching to go again after I had run out of battery, but I was running out of daylight as well. It had to wait until the next day. Today is day four, and I’ve had it out multiple times every day. It’s quite exciting to see your plane continue flying on beyond what a paper plane should, and very cool to see it turn with a twist of the wrist. It has attracted a few interested spectators too, who seem equally impressed. The only downside is it is coming into winter, and the grass is wet. So, before a session is over, my plane is basically trashed. I’ve folded up a few spares now, so I can keep going but I’m keen to build one out of something more durable (balsa?). It still feels like a bit of an extravagance to spend so much on motorising a paper aeroplane, but now that I’ve tried it, I have no regrets. I’ll definitely be getting enough enjoyment out of it to warrant the expense.

Bien empacado, excelente calidad, entregado en tiempo establecido, el kit se ve mejor físicamente ,altamente recomendado.

I was somewhat skeptical that this would be so easy to fly but i was wrong. The first time it left my hand it was up and flying. Like anything, it takes a moment to get a feel for the controls and a couple flights to get the trim set but in the mean time you're already flying and having fun. Easy to hook up with phone and rechargeable battery is long lasting on one charge. Also seems to be good quality and is durable. Worth the cost for so much fun right out of the box.

Ich habe nach einem einfachen und günstigem Flugmodell gesucht und bin durch Zufall auf dieses Modell gestoßen. Ich finde das Konzept ein Papierflugzeug mit einer per Smatphone steuerbaren Flugeinheit zu kombinieren sehr spannend. Deshalb habe ich mich für das Modell entschieden. Nicht allein der Aufbau ist spannend, weil ich mein eigenes Flugzeug bauen konnte. Zusätzlich macht es wirklich Spaß damit zu fliegen. Nach wenigen Versuchen, konnte ich das Flugzeug bereits über eine Minute in der Luft halten. Spannend finde ich auch die App internen Piloten Rankings. Das motiviert zusätzlich. Einzig bei starkem Wind und Nässe nicht zu fliegen. Ist eben nur ein Papierflugzeug. Trotzdem ein sehr nettes Spielzeug.

It is so cool to play with, but you have to know that it’s easy to break and get lost. So be careful
