Beginner RC Planes from the World’s Leading Brands

At RCMA Model & Hobby Shop, we stock beginner RC planes from the world’s leading brands, ensuring you get the best quality and performance for learning to fly. Our selection includes trusted names like E-Flite, FMS, HobbyZone, Prime RC, and many others. These planes are specifically designed to make your first flights easier, offering stability, durability, and user-friendly features to help build confidence in the air.

Ready-To-Fly RC Trainer Planes

Most of our RC trainer planes are ready-to-fly (RTF) models, designed to get you in the air with minimal setup. These planes come fully assembled, with everything you need to start flying right out of the box, making them ideal for beginners who want to focus on learning without the hassle of complex assembly.

One standout model is the HobbyZone Apprentice STOL S. This ultra-micro RC trainer plane is a scaled-down version of the renowned Apprentice series, optimised for small spaces like yards and parks. It features Horizon Hobby's exclusive SAFE technology, which includes beginner, intermediate, and experienced flight modes, ensuring a smooth learning curve. The powerful brushless motor and durable design make it perfect for new pilots, but also for seasoned pilots who enjoy teaching others.

Another excellent choice is the HobbyZone Mini AeroScout. This compact trainer is perfect for flying at soccer fields or large parks. It includes a 100% complete setup with a controller, battery, and charger, so you can start flying immediately. Its durable EPP construction and pusher power configuration improve safety and performance, while its quick assembly ensures you're ready to fly in minutes.

For those interested in warbirds, the Prime RC Mini Spitfire offers a fun flying experience with its top-gyro system. This feature provides three levels of assistance, helping beginners progress from basic to advanced flying skills while enjoying aerobatic maneuvers. These RTF models ensure you have a hassle-free start and an enjoyable flying experience as you learn to master the skies.

Bind-N-Fly & Plug-N-Play Trainer RC Planes

Bind-n-fly (BNF) trainer RC planes come nearly assembled and require a compatible transmitter, battery, and charger to get started. The Carbon Cub S2 is a top choice for new pilots, offering versatile flight modes and optional SAFE Plus GPS-enabled technology for enhanced learning. Its robust build and smart components, like telemetry-capable ESC, make it perfect for both beginners and even seasoned flyers.

Plug-n-play (PNP) models, like the Prime RC T1400 glider, come with pre-installed electronics but require your own transmitter, receiver, battery, and charger. This durable glider excels with its pusher propeller design and relatively easy assembly, making it ideal for quick, enjoyable flights. Its lightweight, high-density EPO construction ensures great performance and easy transport. Both BNF and PNP models are excellent for refining your skills, with options to suit various learning stages and flying environments.
