The Hovering RC Jump Jet is an amazing toy which you can fly around your living room. We have written about it before as a toy that’s coming soon and now it seems it’s finally available.
The Hovering RC Jump Jet can do vertical take offs and landings (VTOL). It is fairly simple to fly due to a built in solid state accelerometer that keeps the RC Jump Jet rock solid while hovering. The remote control is 4 channel which allows for you to move it up/down, rotate left and right as well as moveing it backwards and forwards. Finally the last channel allows you to strafe left and right. Due to the accelerometer being built in, it automatically trims the controls so that all you need to do is fly the thing.
Hovering RC Jump Jet Flying Tips:
1. Auto trim the Jump Jet before each flight by power cycling the remote.
2. New pilots may find it easier to use the right/left controls on left stick for rotation, then push the right stick forward to move forward when pointing in the direction you want to go.
3. Make note of the “EZ” switch on the remote. When this switch is on, it prevents you from making fast maneuvers that may send the Jump Jet out of control.
