Why It’s a Great Choice

Whether you’re just starting out or already comfortable with basic flying and looking to progress, the Easy Trainer 1280 strikes an excellent balance:

• As a trainer: The stable EPO foam airframe and pusher layout make takeoffs, landings and general handling more forgiving.

• As a glider/advanced platform: With ailerons and glider-style wing = you can start exploring more advanced manoeuvres, thermal-soaring or FPV setups.

• Transport-friendly size: 1280 mm wingspan is large enough for visible flight performance, but not so giant that it becomes a hassle to carry or transport.

• Plug-and-play RTF: You get all the essentials in the box — great for making your first flights quickly.

Ideal For

• New RC airplane pilots seeking a ready-to-fly model that’s safe and manageable.

• Intermediate flyers who want a fun, versatile model that can transition from basic trainer into more dynamic glider/FPV flying.

• RC hobbyists who appreciate a reliable platform with good performance, and want something that remains relevant as their skills grow.

Considerations

• While the RTF package is convenient, ensure you have extra batteries, spare propellers and perhaps transport/storage gear.

• As with all foam trainers, while durable, it’s good practice to carry spare parts or adhesives for field repairs.

• Flying wind conditions: With a wingspan of 1280 mm and a weight around 630–660 g, moderate winds may affect stability — choose calmer conditions for initial flights.
