Here is another episode of “Budget RC”. This series is dedicated to finding great RC deals through friends, local RC clubs and swap meets, local sellers on Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist, eBay, RC Groups, other online forums etc. The goal of this series is to show you a sampling of budget deals for RC vehicles and equipment, as well as to provide a sense of what is out there and how much you should expect to pay.

I found this nicely used Eflite UMX Radian bindandfly (BNF) 3channel RC glider at an RC swap meet organized by the New Hampshire Flying Tigers RC Club. The seller was asking $25, I offered $20, and he accepted my offer. I think it was a fantastic deal (I call it a "steal"). I always wanted to get one of these parkflyers, but it had been discontinued before I could get my hands on one:

I had no difficulty binding it to my RadioMaster TX16S OpenTX transmitter and setting it up. If you are wondering how it is done, I present the procedure in a previous video featuring the TX16S and another Eflite UMX airplane with AS3X:

In this video, I am showing my first flight with it on a warm but breezy day.
