New Indoor Flyers From ParkZone

ParkZone has introduced two new indoor electric planes, operated by Spektrum-compatible 2.4 GHz radios. At left is the Ember RTF, which has a wingspan of 16 inches and a flying weight of 0.6 ounces. We saw this plane fly at the WRAM Show and were impressed with its agility. It's a three channel model with throttle, elevator, and rudder control.

At right is the Vapor RTF, which will be available in June and has a 14.75 inch wingspan and weighs even less at 0.4 ounces. It will also come in a Bind-N-Fly configuration, meaning you supply a DSM2 radio such as a Spektrum DX7 or DX6i. Owners of the E-flite Blade CX2 can also reuse that spread spectrum radio with this model, which is appealing. Both planes operate on a single cell LiPo battery and charger, both of which are included.
