SAVE YOUR MONEY! Jun 18, 2007

After viewing a great TV commercial, my kids HAD TO GET THIS for their dad for father's day. They were very excited! Unfortunately, the first day was spent charging...cooling...cycling....cooling....charging...cooling the batteries. The next day our maiden run was VERY highly anticipated. The unit had VERY poor range randomly varying from 8-30 feet. The unit responded to radio-controlled commands just as randomly. Within HALF A MINUTE of our first run, the unit did not respond to turn commands within close range and ended up in a patch of grass, flipped, and the propellor broke. FROWN! Good concept, POOR PRODUCT. DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL TO ANYONE. I should mention, that my husband is an engineer, read the entire manual, and has much experience with radio-controlled products...therefore my point is that the problem was NOT operator-error.

Peice of junk!! Oct 12, 2007

DO NOT BUY!!! I ordered this airplane for my 17 year old son for his birthday. To start with it is never a good thing to see that the package includes super glue!! The thing was broken before we even got it out of the package!! We fixed the rudder (the part that was broken) and took it to the park for the test run. Guess what...it took a nose dive on the first run and cracked down the middle. The seller "doesn't accept returns of damaged items". So now we are stuck with a broken, uncontrollable, styrofoam peice of junk that the company won't stand behind. If you are looking to disappoint your child then buy this, if not...look elsewhere!!
CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nov 25, 2009

I bought this from the NAVY Exchange online; didnt even come in any real packaging; looked like some guy found a box in his garage...
Well anayway; it has just enough power to drive it into the ground... mine has probably a grand total of 46 seconds of flight time in about 8 tries; I'm not a skilled pilot but I doubt any more skill would help much.
If you just want to use it as a boat that might work; I tried hand launching... maybe take off from water would work better? Sure would make landings softer... but then you have to swim out to get it because chances are it wont be upright.
The elevator and turn flaps are 2 position only so you have to feather it to maintain control.

This plane has horrible controls,
First they are not proportional, when you turn left, its full left, up is full up, you cant turn "just a little", this makes controlling this plane a real big pain.
It's very durable, no complaints in that department, but its a real bad in terms of controlling the plane.
The worst part is that power is controlled by some sort of "4 speed settings" Slow -> medium -> fast -> fastest.
Engine is not proportional this results in a very very very dificult flight, the plane will go up really fast or down really fast.
It seems to be a cool RC, but fliying it is a real deception.

This toy looked great in the video you can find on-line, but by the plane in real life is not that great. controls needed tuning right out of the box. Battery life is quite shore considering a 20 minute recharge time. After recharging, or use for that matter, you need to let the battery cool prior to use again for about 5 minutes, adding to the charge time.
Neet idea on the charger system using a car's cigarette adapter instead of a bunch of D-cell batteries, but this means repeated trips from your flying area to a car for recharge. Also, changing the battery out for recharge is a neusance as it is stored within the fusalage, requiring a screwdriver to remove the screw (which is begging to be dropped and lost) to then remove the battery. Couldn't this have been done with some kind of latching mechanism?
Yes, I know, make one myself that's better... I just wish we could bring back quality construction and mix that with todays technology... Imagine what we could achive as a people!
