First off, I've been flying this plane for over a year now. I bought one as my first RC plane. For this price, I figured I could afford to build my flying skills on it, and I was not disappointed. If you're looking for a serious RC plane then you may not like this one that much. It MUST be flown in little to no wind and a charge lasts for about 10 minutes of flight time. However, if you want something to just mess around with and hone your flight skills for bigger, better planes, then this one is terrific. I now own two of these since I found it works out very well to fly one til it dies then charge it up while flying the other. You have virtually no "down-time" this way. Both planes are still in good shape after a year of use. I fly over a grassy field and have not broken anything... yet. Wind is the biggest adversary to this plane. It is made of a styro-foam-like material and is very light. It almost has the feel of a controled kite, especially when it is at a high altitude. It is designed to use it's engines to control it's steering and altitude. If you want to go higher, give it more power and point it into the breeze. I've had this thing scary-high and have had to just cut power and let it fall to a lower height. It took a little while to master but like I said, it was my first RC plane. Now I can toss-launch it and not bring it down til the battery runs out. And alot of the time I bring it right back and catch it in my hand. One thing I will mention, the first plane I bought flies better than the second. The body on the 2nd was bent up more and the stabilizers are at a different angle. So each may have it's own slightly different flight characteristics to get used to. But you'll love every minute once you get dialed in on it. For the price, I highly recommend. Happy flying!!Get more detail about Air Hogs R/C Jet Scream Airplane.
