This is an Unboxing, Build, Review, and Maiden Flight video for the WLToys Cessna 182 RC Plane. I reviewed this because of its price point and that a few of my subscribers were wondering if it was a decent alternative to the legendary Hobbyzone Champ made by Horizon Hobby. \r<br>\r<br>If you are wondering where I got this, I got it from Gearbest & here is a link to the plane:\r<br>\r<br>\r<br>Here are my review notes:\r<br>\r<br>Pros:\r<br>- Long flight times\r<br>- Plenty of power\r<br>- The radio is very good for a ready to fly - RTF RC Plane\r<br>- Does nice loops\r<br>\r<br>Cons:\r<br>- This is not a hobby grade RC Trainer Plane\r<br>- The CG is a challenge to get dialed in since the battery bay limits adjustments\r<br>\r<br>The longer I have this WLtoys F949 Cessna 182 3 Channel RC Aircraft, the more I enjoy flying it.\r<br>\r<br>Here are some fs about the The Cessna 182 Skylane which this RC Plane is modeled after:\r<br>\r<br>The Cessna 182 Skylane is an American four-seat, single-engined light airplane, built by Cessna of Wichita, Kansas. It has the option of adding two child seats, installed in the baggage area.\r<br>\r<br>Introduced in 1956, the 182 has been produced in a number of variants, including a version with retrable landing gear, and is the second most popular Cessna model, after the 172.\r<br>\r<br>The Cessna 182 was introduced in 1956 as a tricycle gear variant of the 180. In 1957, the 182A variant was introduced along with the name Skylane. As production continued, later models were improved regularly with features such as a wider fuselage, swept tailfin with rear omni-vision window, enlarged baggage compartment, higher gross weights, landing gear changes, etc. The restart aircraft built after 1996 were different in many other details including a different engine, new seating design, etc.\r<br>\r<br>By mid-new Cessna planned to introduce the next model of the 182T, the JT-A, using the 227 hp (169 kW) SMA SR305-230 diesel engine running on Jet-A with a burn rate of 11 U.S. gallons (42 L; 9.2 imp gal) per hour and cruise at 155 kn (287 km/h).[4][5] Cessna has no timeline for the JT-A and the diesel 172.[6] The normally aspirated, avgas fueled 182 went out of production in new, but came back in new.[7]\r<br>\r<br>I still plane to make more videos with this WL Toys Cessna - 182, so stay tuned for those in the near future.\r<br>\r<br>GB
