The 'types' are very generalized and only indicate their ease of flying. There are planes, because of there physical size and/or weight that should not be used at a certain venue that might be associated with the 'type'. Note: The example types given relate to the 'flyability' or level of difficulty, not a specific venue. Wing Cube Loading & Types of Planes Typically Related to the WCL The lower the WCL value, the easier the plane is to fly, especially for beginners to the hobby.

The WCL value is an indicator as to how 'easy' a plane flies on a relative scale. The planes are arranged by their Wing Cube Loading (WCL) value. Trainer List, Spring 2018 30+ RC Trainers Spring 2018
