I have an assortment of both land and air RC vehicles, so when I saw this one I knew I had to try it. It is mostly assembled right out the box and the tail and wheels are easy to pop in. The batteries are small and seemed to charge fairly quickly, though I don't know what amount of charge they had to start with. I put batteries in the remote and was ready to go.Since I have a number of trees around the front of my house, I took the plane to a nearby RC plane fliers club since it had a wide open field and solid surfaces as a runway. The remote is simple to operate, with the throttle on the left and the control stick on the right. It really didn't take much to get me off the runway and into the air. The auto-stabilization makes this plane extremely easy to fly. There was nearly no breeze the day I took it and that really helped me get a feel for the controls. The remote was peppy and it made for a fun experience. The two batteries got slightly different lengths of service, one lasting a little more than the quoted estimate and the other a little less, so assume it is an average. I'm sure wind conditions will affect that greatly. I was just happy I didn't fly it into the ground. Landing took a little practice, but you can get the feel of the throttle and stick to get it right pretty quickly.The plane itself is constructed of foam, with a rubber nose cone and plastic props. It is light and will take a little abuse, but hitting objects will take its toll quickly. I have since flown it in my front yard, which is about half an acre, with no problems once I learned the controls. The plane has stood up to multiple rough landings and I am pretty happy with it.Overall, it is a fairly easy to fly RC plane that I think is worth the money.

This plane took a beating the first flight, at least until I got accustomed to the controls. Nothing serious, just cutting it too close to a pine tree and having to land it without the front wheel due to the piece falling off. I did have to glue the wheels on, mainly the front spring due to it randomly falling out, but the plane does still fly.
