This thing is awesome. My boys loved playing with this on the lake.

Easy to fly!

This is a new take on the old airhogs storm launcher that everyone loved in the mid 2000s...but smaller. It has a surprising amount of power for 3.7v(1s) and flies quite well in calm conditions. It can handle some wind with experienced flyers but does have a tendency to rock in a breeze. The dual rates on the TX are a nice touch but high rates are a must when flying. The built In gyro system does a good job of keeping the craft in a stable attitude but can also be quite intrusive in some aspects of the flight characteristics as it won't allow you do loops, etc but it is very fun to fly in high alpha(stalled). One thing to be careful of is it has a limited range and gets out of range quick if your not careful, also I feel the supplied batteries could be improved with a higher c rating because they get worked pretty hard. The jst connector is great because there's a wide variety of batteries that are better suited and will fit right in the plane, like the urgenex 1s 850 and ovonics 1s 850. Noticeable improvement of punch and flight times. One thing I did notice is it could use some increased elevator authority so I did move the control linkage to the outer hole of the servo horn and it gave the craft much more response. All in all this is a fun little craft for novices and experienced rc'ers alike and is a good platform for deerc to improve it even more. A bigger, brushless version would a big hit!

Broke in half where the two styrofoam parts were glued. It landed softly on some grass and split in two. Great idea but the glue between the two parts was poorly don’t. It was like it never bonded together. Cheap junk that most likely failed a quality control test for another company that designed it better. Thank you China.

I’m an adult in my 40’s. This was easy to fly out of the box. I played with it for 2 days on a small lake and it’s soooo much fun! Don’t let the fact that it’s made out of foam turn you off either (I almost did) it’s actually very strong! I crash landed it in water, land, got it stuck in a tree and recovered it with a long pole. Still functioning like new! It’s also so light that you don’t need to be worried about taking out innocent bystanders! Tremendous amount of fun for the price! Get it!! Oh, and the battery life claims are true - lasts a long time and 2 batteries is an added bonus!Update: I’ve probably flown (and crashed) this thing for 10-12 more sessions since my initial review. Still going strong! I’m past what little learning curve there was and can now land the thing on a dock and get it to fly much higher! Battery life remains good. I’m still on my original set of props. (It’s nice to know that it came with 2 replacements.) This toy has a great cost to fun ratio in my opinion!

Too light. Got away. Up, up and away! Don’t know where it landed?

This is a great deal. It's my favorite RC device (is it a plane? it's more like a sky boat). It flies brilliantly. It lacks the control surfaces to be truly acrobatic (not necessarily a bad thing), but has strong twin engines and a large elevator, and exceptional automated stabilization. My 12yo, who doesn't fly usually, was able to keep it aloft, in decent wind, no problem, and even did a couple touch-and-gos.I've flown at least a dozen flights myself, and this plane is a treat. we love it.We've only had a few hard landings, no crashes, but it looks great.For fun, I added carbon fiber supports to make it more rigid.It is a blast. It flies like a boat. You point it into the wind and it plows through it like a ship at see. The range is excellent.Note, due to lack of wings, if you lose too much speed, it will fall straight down like a rock (like an A10), so don't let that happen. This is not a glider. It is easy to fly, but it's fairly fast, small, and needs some room. Keep it moving, it is light with strong engines, so use them.I love this plane, I want more!

I've been flying for years but needless to say I set this thing on the lake for the first try no hand launch or off the ground straight water and it took right off!!! I dialed in the fine trim as it was in the air and wound up having a blast doing touch and goes on the water and several flights of flawless issues this is an Awesome little plane. It is very little but it will glide with the proper throttle and elevator angle dialed in. I was very impressed with this cheap little plane. I'm used to much lager scale planes but this thing holds up to everything I can throw at it in the air. Very easy to fly with just alittle practice and or if your a seasoned flyer youll love it too im sure!!
