Lego® Planes for teenagers and adults
Planes from the Lego® Technic theme are particularly popular with older Lego pilots. In construction, these are more complex and represent a demanding building challenge. Unlike the planes for children, Lego Technic models usually do not include minifigures.Lego Technic planes are mainly used as models for building, admiring and displaying.
The planes have technical details and exciting functions. They make it possible to get to know and understand how gearboxes, landing gears, engines and propellers work.
For inexperienced builders are recommended small planes from Lego Technic. These include, for example, small racing planes. Many Lego Technic sets offer the possibility to convert the respective model. You can recognize such sets by a 2 in 1 sign, which is located on the packaging. With the help of the alternative Lego Technic building instructions, a racing plane becomes a jet plane.
