this thing is pretty zippy for a trainer various control settings to make it as maneuverable as you want.

Bad thing is that the 2 hour charge time for the battery gives you only about "15 minutes" tops in the air... 10 minutes is a little bit more realistic. but its cool and a lot of fun,

too bad i dont have this weekend off or else i would be zooming that thing all over the place terrorizing the local birds!

it is a little harder to land these things than i thought it would be, good thing it comes with two props... already dinked one up pretty bad today  ;D

Nice, looks like a lot of fun. I'm into R/C heli's myself, I have a big fixed-wing plane, but nowhere to fly it :(. Hope you have fun with it, this is a great hobby. :)

1 extra battery pack.

Now i just need to practice my landings.  8-)

It looks more like a Christmas present than a Valentines present.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

well my wife...she got me a new suitcase (badly needed), windows vista and a greeting card and teamed up with my folks to get the RC plane then she cooked me a dinner fit for a king.  Steak smothered in marinated onions, green peppers and red peppers with mashed potatoes and buttered bread. for Dessert she served up some chocolate covered strawberries served on a bed of marshmallows and small red candies.  ;)
 

what in the hell i did to deserve all of that fanfare is WAY beyond me. But i was really loving it!

You'll be glad to know the battery pack can be recharged in 20-30 minutes using a field charger plugged into your car lighter socket, if you have several packs you can have one on charge while flying with another.
