Title: Phoenix Tiger III / Phoenix Scanner
Post by: Rcjabalpur on August 18, 2014, 09:16:07 PM
Its been a while since i have been flying my high wing model (nexstar) and my sky surfer , and ti be frank iam now bored of them , cant do anything exciting with them . I want to buy my third plane now and iam really confused between the following two plane's
1- Phoenix Tiger 3 (.46-.55)
2- Phoenix Scanner (.46-.55)
I would like to know all of your opinion as to what air plane should i choose considering the following points,
1- will be my first low wing aircraft (never flown one before)
2- should be stable in the air
3- should not sink to fast
4- will like to go electric
5- build quality (a good quality is must)
Also if you good people can let me know as to what to expect from low wing airplanes (though have been practicing on my simulator) the flight characteristics etc

It is not oppening maybe it is not public
 
Also i have heard people saying tigers low speed flying is bad , slightest of wind will set it off and landing it is a task is any of it true ?

Dear Rajjaiswal,

Nice to know that you are looking for your third model.  If you are ready to accept my advice please do it the way I say.  Get a kit of a model and make it yourself.  Later you can go the scratch building way.  This way you have more leeway of doing what you want and get the model you want at a lesser cost.  Also the excitement of making your own model is far too big.  I make all my models.

Hope you are ok with my advice and not taking it in any other way.  Aeromodelling is not just flying models but also making them and then flying them.

regards
Happy flying
Shobhit

My Dear Sir please do not humiliate me in such a way , you are free to guide me by your finger anytime of the day , there is absolutely no way i can take your advice and valuable input in any other way as it will do only good to me

Dear friend,
I am extremely sorry if you felt bad on what I said.  I am just trying to encourage friends out here to make the models instead of buy them off the shelf and fly.  I do not mean anything wrong in that.
Happy Flying
