A great easy flier for first timers. Bounces rather than breaking. Could be a bit more powerful.Fly inside a gymnasium. Very susceptible to breezes. But it's cheap and easy to get started with.

My two 6 year olds say, “You have to be gentler than most planes. You can fly it really high. The tail cracked off a bit. Part of the tail can crack off really easy. It’s a good plane for beginners because it’s really maneuverable. You should buy it.”

This plane can't actually glide, you control it's elevation with the throttle which doesn't really work. It's too fast for indoor and the tiniest tiny wind will crash this plane immediately. This is also way overpriced for the (lack of) quality of the product. Look elsewhere.

My 8 year old has been asking me for a R/C plane. I did not want to get him a big expensive one yet because 1) I can never tell how long things like this will keep his interest2) I did not want something that was heavy and could damage things that it crashed in to3) I did not want to spend a lot of money on something that could easily be destroyed in a crashAfter researching inexpensive beginner planes I came across this plane, and it addresses all of my concerns. It has simple, straighforward controls, is extremely light with styrofoam construction, and is reasonable priced. I was worried about durability, but it has crashed many time and held up just fine. The simple controls are appropriate for a young child, and he has lots of fun flying his first R/C plane. And I don't have to worry about him damaging anything if he does crash it. And if it is damaged, it is easily repaired and can be replaced without a huge out of pocket expense. It is also fun for adults too, and is small and light enough to be safely flown indoors.

Great plane for the money. It is foam but it’s pretty flexible and durable to crashes. I took it out of the box and went straight to flying it outside. It doesn’t really like the wind but even in a stronger breeze, it flys no problem. Besides being a tiny controller, I haven’t had any trouble with signal or controls for the plane. The controller has a little compartment that perfectly fits the spare props which is really smart design. The charger is a little weird because you have to plug it into the charging block before you plug it in the wall otherwise it won’t work. Other than that it surprised me on how much fun you can get out of a $40 rc plane

This is an easy plane to fly for kids because it takes a beating but it does take a bit to fly. You need to keep it close to the remote. It can not fly with any wind. The slightest breeze will carry it away.

This little 2 channel plane is awesome! I have been heavily into the RC hobby for many many years. I have a very extensive collection of cars, trucks and planes. Nitro electric and even a few gas powered vehicles. I bought this because the price was very affordable and I thought it might be a fun little toy to fly indoors and introduce rc planes to my 6 year old son. It arrived on time and packaged well. The box it comes in doubles as an excellent case to carry it in. Mine had a couple of 1s lipo batteries. It charges up quickly and flys on a full battery for a very long time (maybe 10 minutes). My only real complaint is the transmitter or controller. Its pretty cheap feeling. It reminds me of a controller you would get with a small inexpensive indoor drone. That said it functions great! Excellent range and runs on only a couple aa batteries. When i was a kid in the early 80's I remember i had this 2 channel rc plane and it was absolutely horrible. It was very expensive (well over $100) and the tx only had two buttons on it. Left button turned left and climbed in altitude, right button banked right and went down or lost altitude. Needless to say it was basically unflyable. Back then that was basically the only option for an rc plane that wasn't a very expensive hobby grade nitro RC plane. Something like this would've been absolutely amazing. Comparatively this plane flys awesome and is a fraction of the price. To gain altitude you give it more throttle input and it goes up. It kind of porpoises as it gains altitude but totally flyable and really fun! It kind of flies like its tail heavy which is normally really bad with hobby grade rc planes but not with this little guy. Its very controllable and a real blast to fly around your backyard or a park. You don't need much space but unfortunately flying it indoors would be pretty difficult unless you were in a gymnasium or something. The plane is made of foam and is basically indestructable. It doest really go fast enough to do any damage in the event of a crash. But that doesn't mean it super slow or anything. It's just really well made. The only thing I could see breaking is the propellers and they give you an extra set of propellers. Even if you jumped up and down on this little guy I don't think you'd do enough damage to render it permanently broken. I have planes that cost hundreds of dollars that are far more delicate. It makes me really happy that cool fun little inexpensive toys like this exist because it brings people into the hobby. I highly recommend this plane and urge you to get it if you're on the fence at all. I highly recommend this super fun little rc plane.

I haven't flown an RC plane in over 15 years. I picked this one up with three batteries for around $30 USD. I purchased it with the mindset of if it doesn’t work or breaks the first day, oh well.I was pleasantly surprised how fun and easy it is to fly! All my children, ranging in age from 12-16, have soloed with it already! After three days of flying around the backyard, think we have a pretty good feel for the plane.One key note, if you can feel a breeze on your face, it’s probably too much wind. We usually fly it around sunset as the breeze settles down. Just a light breeze rocks and buffet the 10/11 ounce airplane around.We haven’t had any issues with the batteries. We pushed all three to around 14-15 minutes each. We set a timer for 13 minutes to bring the plane in for a landing. One thing to note, we’re easy on the throttle, so I’m sure thats why we have longer flight times.The packaging is nice and it serves as a nice carrying case.The transmitter is small and basic. Throttle, left and right directional control and left and right trim. There’s a L/H button which I’m assuming is High and Low rates, but I can’t really tell a difference.Great buy, would buy again!
