Dynam Planes

[ss0028]

Want to get a Dynam plane and want to get a good popular durable one. Any suggestions? I am interested in a few a jet, a war bird, and a aerobatic

RE: Dynam Planes

My favorite Dynam planes are the Waco Biplane and the C-188 Dusty. I have the AT6 Texan but, I have never flown it yet.

Only one meets all those requirements the A10 Warthog

Dynam are a great value. Not great planes but great value if you know how to test and align things.

Sorry for the confusion, I meant a war bird, a separate jet, and a separate aerobatic plane.


Thanks

RE: Dynam Planes

Not sure what you are asking with such a wide ranging question.
As most Dynams are light but underpowered they don't present well as warbirds. I also don't like their lack of power and their small control surfaces when it come to aerobatic planes.

I like the fact that this BF 110 as it is a twin and a warbird. It is fun but rather limited in what it can use for batteries.

Love the Meteor as a 70mm sport jet. But I think the Rebel is a better model with close to the same value.

If looking for an aerobatic plane here on MotionRC I don't think you will find any better than these two. Good power and control authority!

RE: Dynam Planes

I have the Grand Cruiser , Corsair , Waco , Focke Wulf , Dusty and enjoy them all . Not sure of your RC experience in regards to flying but the Waco and Corsair are my favorites . The Dusty and Grand Cruiser are relaxing to fly . No assembly problems and the Waco , Corsair , Dusty all run on the Batteries . 

The EDFs take a little more experience to fly . I fly on grass and all I listed work well on it .

Keep us up on what you decide !

RE: Dynam Planes

Do any of you know if there t-28 and p51 are any good (worth the price)?


Thanks

[Konrad]

RE: Dynam Planes

Worth the price? No contest, looking at what E-flite wants for their comparable sized models. And for about another 30 dollars you can get the better RX and gyro from Lemon RC*. So yes, they are well worth the price and more. Now I need to be clear the E-flite models often look better and are often packaged a lot better. Also E-flite has great customer support and warranty support. So it is up to you to make the value assessment. If I was looking, I'd lean towards the FreeWing models

Hello Konrad,
Don't want to derail this thread on Dynam planes so would you please start a thread on these lemon receivers and give us your review/opinion/experiences of these. They have caught my eye and am very interested, especially in the 10 channel. My other 20 birds have Spektum AR400, AR610, AR6210 and AR8000 which as you know has cost a fortune. I now have a LX B-25 and the AR9020 to control it is $150 versus the Lemon 10 channel at $25.
Appreciate any insight you can provide on performance,reliability, quality.
Thanx,  

[Konrad]

RE: Dynam Planes

As this is a vendor site I'd rather not go into details about a product they don't sell and actually, competes with products they sell.
I'd be happy to discuss it here.

RE: Dynam Planes

I have about 15 using tactic equipment and have only had 1 failure and that was after the reciever had been involved in a crash. Pilot error on the crash. MRC carries these in stock.

RE: Dynam Planes

I've been flying R/C since the 70's and as a competition pilot I have high very high standards for my radios. I flew and still fly Multiplex as I like the logic of the TX programing. None of this Master Slave stuff. I've also suffered through the teething pains of 2.4Ghz.

As I believe Tactic is made by SJ Prop they should be a quality product if history is a gauge. I think they are the holding company for Graupner.

I'm getting very partial to Fr Sky.

RE: Dynam Planes

Why did you turn the conversation to something other than a Dynam question ! The member asked for some info on the brand . You completely turn it to something that it wasn't asked about . The Dynam is a budget friendly brand to look at . It doesn't have all the bells n whistles of some but doesn't have the price tag to go with it !!! 

I do know that MRC has worked with them and some of the issues that were there in the past have been fixed . 

I have Freewing and FMS planes but enjoy the Dynams I have just as much .

RE: Dynam Planes

If that is directed at me? As the OP was asking about value I compared the Dynam products he specifically asked about with what I saw as comparable products carried by MotionRC. And to my eye that was the E-flite stuff. Now E-flite models carry a premium price in part because that include the RX. I tried to level the comparison by adding the RX (LemonRX) to the Dynam side of the equation (discussion).

Now I was asked to go into detail about the Lemon Rx and I politely declined.

So what is the issue? The Op asked about value of the Dynam product. As "Value" has a cost component to it, comparing it to what else is on the market looked to me to be within the scope of the question.

I agree fully with this "The Dynam is a budget friendly brand to look at".
And I try to explain what bells 'n' whistles they are lacking to reach that low price point.

I tried to give a voice of support for what MotionRC sells in the Tactic line of radios mentioned by someone else.

I'm here to help the OP or anybody else get the most out of this hobby with their limited dollars. I'm not here to sell any one brand or product over another.

All the best,
Konrad

RE: Dynam Planes

Greetings from the Pacific NW,   :)

If its ok I would like to throw in my 2 cents, I have been flying Rc for around 5 years now and have been through a lot of growing pains. Not wanting to spend a butt load of money as a beginner, I chose to go with Dynam as an entry level plain. Having no one to guide me or receive advice from, I learned the hard way to say the least. Now that its 5 years later, I give 5 stars to the Dynam line up. Easy to build, easy to fly, easy to repair, easy to up grade, and not a lot of money down in the dirt when crash happened. I now have a complete line up of Dynam, FMS, and Roc Hobby air craft. I still love to fly my Dynam war birds, and I really enjoy up grading them to. They are a slow flyer right out of the box making it easy to learn the basics, then when your ready, a simple prop change turns your Dynam air craft into high speed fun. The keys to my success in the the Dynam line up are, Knowing how to modify and rake the landing gear, learn the math to what size props to change to with out over heating the ESC, Single blades work best for speed. The most important with Dynam war birds is proper CG. The Spit Fire and P51 have nose over issues on landing. A neutral Cg, and raked forward landing gear really help out with this issue. The single most thing I like the best is Dynam makes a super sturdy plat form on all there air craft. No worries about doing HIGH SPEED MOTOR SWAPS. When you do this though, a little hinge tape on all your hinges is recommended. Food for thought from the pacific NW.  :cool:

RE: Dynam Planes

I don't know a lot about Dynam, but do know I like the Dusty and do plan on it and a Grand Cruiser in the future. All I have heard of about Dynam is usually the directions are lacking a little detail, but are a good planes in value.

[fhhuber]

RE: Dynam Planes

Loving every plane so far in the appx 1200-1400 mm span series. I have: P-51, Spitfire, Me-109, Tiger Moth, Albatross, T-28, Me-262 from that series so far.

The Spitfire and P-51 benefit from going to 4S 3000-3300 mah. No change of prop, ESC or motor needed. Just carve out foam to make it fit.
Me-262... look for my review for changes to make it perform better (110 mph straight out of the box)
Tiger Moth is a nice lazy trainer on 3S 2200 to 4000... and a real hot dog on 4S 3000 (4S 4400 bends the wings a lot...)

All of the series are great flying planes...

RE: Dynam Planes

There is a rumor that Dynam is coming out with Russian and Japanese planes.

[Alpha]

RE: Dynam Planes

Russian and Japanese? Which models would you think would be the most popular?

[Konrad]

RE: Dynam Planes

A Mig 3 would be high on my list
