This is a great plane. I bought it to mount a camera on and I did just this - making my own simple mounting rather than buying one. It carries the HK version of the GoPro fine - stable and plenty of power. But then I tried it without the camera and its lost of fun. Wizzes around the sky - set the prop to brake when power off and it whistles by fast when pulling out of a dive. I bought the wheels as well but they are flimsy and you need to cut into the fuselage to mount them so havent bothered using them. Great plane at a bargain price. Ok as a trainer too I reckon. Tried it with flaps and didn't need them so took the servos out to save weight.

Really amazing plane for a beginner like me !
This plane is very smooth and can be powerful when you put some throttle.
I really recommand this plane for beginners and for experts.
The one thing that I don't really like; it's the wings attach system : Before flight it's not easy at all to attach wings servos wires to the Rx... This thing need a modification.

Excellent FPV-platform: with an (old) 2200 mAh Lipo I have flight times of 30 minutes ( with some gliding, of course...). Much space in the fuselage for all equipment and its a real good glider - much better than an Easy Star.

Quite ok for a PNP, with a little effort makes a great plane.

Dunno how it'd have flown straight out of the box, but I decided to do some mods in mine:
- reinforced the elevator with 2 carbon spars
- enlarged the rudder with 6mm depron into 200pcnt
- replaced the wing-joiner with a bigger tube and sawed it into 2 pieces which I glued into the wings and got a separate wing-joiner
- some barbeque-sticks glued for extra reinforcements in various places
- got rid of the stickers (nit like they even tried to stay on) and waiting for some paint.

Flies quite gently with the stock motor and propeller, flies inverted, loops and such, glides well and flaps are a nice little add-on. Also slopes well.

Good value for the new lower price.

Arrived in perfect condition. Very easy and quick to assemble. I added the flap servos. One needed reversing due to the way the cutouts in the wings were done. I used a 2200mah 3c battery and a 30A ESC. The cg on the middle of the suggested range felt a little forward on the first flight requiring a few clicks of up trim. Second flight moved the battery back a little and was perfect. Very nice little aeroplane :-) Battery lasts ages with only about 50pcnt charge used after 30 minutes gentle flying.
