I thought so. It sure wouldn't be a good beach plane - one landing and that intake would be packed with sand. Might be fun to fly off my upper deck like I do my Slo-V - unless it has to fly fast to be controllable.

they are fun little planes. its an edf, so they are a bit different then prop planes. they don't have much thrust so you have to be carefull of stalls on steep climbs. also with the stock brushed motor it will do 50 some mph, so they move pretty good for how small they are. that's the other thing, you can lose sight off them pretty quick if you don't pay attention. but they are a blast to fly for the price, they just take some getting used to.

Good to know. How do they fly at lower speeds?

pretty well if you have a light battery. if your running a bigger battery she drops pretty quick when it slows down. it doesn't stall to bad so you can feed in a bit of up evelator and keep it in the air.
