Not impressed with this model. Needs ailerons and the motor mount is lackluster. Hit the ground once nose first and you will likely be going back to the hangar for more gluing and/or fine tuning. I do however like the motor and servos. Will use them in another model eventually. A decent value if you consider eveything you get with it just don't expect to get it airborne unless lady luck is on your side. Couldn't get mine to fly. :( My advice is keep looking for another micro.

Bad Quality, bad airframe but electronics are worth 30$ so if you want to take your chance.

To make the plane surfaces work you will have to trim a lot. Secure all the screws with glue but even after that the plane does not fly....

For 30$ is a super deal.
In theory it could be shipped internationally for 9.99$ due to the light weight, less then 0.5k.
But HK force EMS or Singapore Air Mail, nothing less then 39$ shipping cost.
I did order a bigger Mini T45, 1.2kg, and I paid less for shipping (~22$)
The question is WHY?

on the First pump of throttle and the prop, motor and spinner flew off. this is dangerous although you are basically buying a esc / BL motor and servos and get a piece of foam free!

I received my Micro P40 yesterday . I decided to put it together if I could this morning and see what I had received. Now Im really a Helicopter Man and I fly a lot of RTF indoor Helis just for fun so this Micro airplane is the first kit aeroplane that I have attempted..Although the destructions showed a spitfire I managed with the Heli knowledge to put it together no problems. In fact the more I went the more I enjoyed. I had a spare Esky tx and rx from a crashed Heli and installed them.. this little beastie wont let you down she took off from a hand launch and away she went. It was a very calm day mind you but Im sure she could handle a wee bit of wind. I tested her with a bit of aeros to the best of my ability and no problems. I just had to move the battery as believe it or not no instructions where to put that, but if youve had experience in flying you will know where to put it. My CG was pretty spot on so all in all a great kit, don't know if she is for beginners but anyhow I havent flown Aeroplanes that much and I enjoyed my experience. At the end of the day for the amount asked buy it you wont regret the little beastie at all

If you are looking for an indoor flier than forget it. It's far to fast on stock set up. It does fly well outside in a modist wind. just make sure your c of g is set far foreward than recommended. my motor had tones of vibes (rather tough to balance a 4 inch prop) I made a top battery hatch which made it much more user firendly.

hope this helps
