...but the transmitter failed on the third flight. I was able to track it down to a blown fuse, which I fixed. Shortly after that, one of the motors failed to spin up and that was it. So it cost me about $10 per flight for my little adventure with the Jump Jet. Having said that, I've got many hundreds of hours flying model helicopters and I was really impressed by the stability of this little guy when it was flying. Maybe I just got a bad one.

This is a great toy! I received it for Christmas, and after a couple hours with no previous flight experience I am now able to fly it very well.

Overall it is very durable, though there are a few parts that don't like crashes very well. The foam body is somewhat delicate, but I took it off as it flies better without it. Also, it comes with four spare propellors. I have already broken four in two days, but three of them were broken when I was still learning how to fly it. Now that I am quite a bit better at flying it, I don't expect that I will break them very often at all, and extras can be bought from http://www.snelflight.co.uk. Apart from that though, it has held up astonishingly well to crashes, even when I have had it drop down full flights of stairs, nothing broke.

The Jump Jet uses IR control, and so far it has been very reliable for me. The only time I have had a problem is when someone else uses remote control in the area. Also, if the transmitter is on, remote controls won't work. Threw me off the first time, but didn't take too long to figure out.

Definitely worth the price, and a great and fun indoor flyer!

The package was received on time, in great condition. The Jet is really cool, easy to fly. Good in a closed space. Dose exactly what it said it could do. Worth the cost of the investment. Children love it. The body is very fragile. I reenforced it with some regular tape, but cuts into your flight time a bit, but you really don't notice it. Overall a great RC Jet to fly.
