Mitch Cooper Reviews the Volantex Trainstar 500mm RC Plane

Strap in for a punchy little flyer!


🛫 Flight Performance

This high-wing trainer shines with dual-battery versatility:

  • 2S Power: Smooth, stable flights (5-8 mins). Perfect for beginners using the auto-correcting beginner mode.

  • 3S Power: Beast mode unlocked! Vertical climbs, snap rolls, and inverted flight (4-6 mins). Best for intermediates – it gets twitchy!
    Pro Tip: Keep speed up in turns – the robust landing gear adds slight weight.


⚙️ Key Features

  • 3 Flight Modes:

    • Beginner (full gyro stabilization)

    • Intermediate (more throw + gyro assist)

    • Expert (raw control for aerobatics)

  • Stunt Button: Pull rolls/loops even in beginner mode!

  • RadioMaster Compatible: Binds to TX16 transmitters.

  • Prop Saver: Pops off during crashes to prevent damage.


🔍 Setup & Build

  • Durable PP Foam: Handles rough landings.

  • Big Wheels: Grass-friendly (material is slightly firm).

  • Colors: Metallic orange/green/blue – pops in sunlight!

  • Easy Assembly: Landing gear snaps in (rear wheel links to rudder).


📹 Watch It Fly!

 


✅ Final Verdict

*"A compact powerhouse! Beginner-friendly on 2S, but truly shines for intermediate pilots on 3S. Love the graphics and insane brushless punch!"*
