Summary: Lots of fun however not durable.
Comments: I purchased this plane as a Christmas gift for my son. The plane appears great and the ability to practice the controls while the plane is locked onto the charging stand is great. It took a few times to get the plane airborne. Throwing the plane level really makes a difference. Once the plane was in the air it was a blast. My 7-year-old son was soon able to do loops and barrel rolls with ease, as long as there was little to no wind.
The main drawback to this toy unfortunately is a major one. The foam material used is not nearly as durable as advertised. I specifically flew this toy on a golf course to ensure if it crashed it would not strike any trees or hard surfaces. After only 4-5 flights pieces of foam broke off the wing tips and the tail section was breaking in half!!
Lots of fun however not durable.

Summary: Awful Plane!!!!!!!!!! Waste of money
Comments: This plane only is controlled by the remote for a few seconds. Once you throw it into the air I completey lost control of it. I was in a field and from the field it flew like 80 feet up and 100 feet far and I tried to land it and turn it off however it woundn't respond it just kept on flying in circles. Then it crashed into a pole and it right I could see the the middle broke in a half and dove down I went to look for it however coudn't find it. It crashed and broke in 2 on my 1st flight. It's not even controlled by the remote it's controlled by wind. Your going to waste your money. Before I purchased it I did not listen to the reviews and I got a bad product. Trust me do not purchase it, it's awful. |

Summary: LOVE IT!!
Comments: This is an awesome rc plane!! I actually found it responsive to turning because of the elevator, once you get it to bank use the up elevator to turn sharply. It has a lot of power so I think you should give it a little down trim. It loops well and does some other tricks I made up. If you want to do a weird trick where the plane goes upside down and does a half roll-spin follow these steps. Get it into a loop, do not dive much so it would just barely complete it, then when you are upsidedown, give it down elevator. Now this is stable so it will try to go right side up, and if you can keep it upsidedown it will roll and spin. You can not really call it educational because all you do is fly around, all in all worth the money and a great flyer. |
