Product Description

Editorial Review

Whether help is needed by land or by air, this radio-controlled military vehicle and aircraft can get to the action. The plane mounts to the all-terrain vehicle on land to provide some additional aerodynamic lift during racing and stunts. The ATV travels at maximum speeds of 300 scale miles per hour and has a racing range of 150 feet. With a flip of the switch on the handset, kids can launch the twin turbo-prop plane right from the vehicle or by hand and control it to climb, dive, or glide at speeds just over 12 miles per hour. The plane travels as far away as 300 feet and full suspension wheels assist in the aircraft's safe landing. A single remote control lets you switch between the two motorized machines and two additional levers move them forward, backward, left, or right. This land/air stunt machine operates on a frequency of 27 megahertz. For a successful race against another vehicle, kids will want to purchase the companion land/air machine on the 49 megahertz frequency; sold separately. --Cristina Vaamonde

Well, I'm not very happy about this product. I spent 100 dollars on it, to then find out that I had to spend another 40 on the battery and charger. After getting it charged, we tried it outside. The plane came down and hit the side walk chipping the very soft styrofoam that it is make out of. We then took it to the school field and lost total control and it just kept going and going. Well after 2 days of looking for it, I guess its gone! What a waste of money and the dissappointment that my 10 year old had to go through!!! No more of MGA's for us! Might have to put a stop to my daughters collection of Bratz becauase of this. My advice , DO NOT BUY THIS TOY!!!!!!! I would not have even giving it a 1 rating, but I had to in order to make this post , I would have givin it a 0

We were a little skeptical about an RC car and plane in one package. We thought it would be junk. However, we were pleasantly surprised. On Christmas Day, our 7 year old was chomping at the bit to try out his new toy. After a few hours, we couldn't take it anymore. Against our better judgement, and the instructions in the manual, we set off for the school yard during a snow flurry to fly our Land/Air RC. Although the car did not work well in the snow, the plane flew extremely well. After 1 attempt our 7-year old was able to master the controls. The plane is also very durable. We have managed to get it stuck at least half a dozen times in trees and have had to throw baseballs at the plane to get it down. No damage has been done to the plane.
Regarding the issue about the extra battery pack, it has been our experience that this is a requirement of most R/C vehicles. After purchasing the vehicle, we simply removed the instruction manual to review the requirements. We were well prepared for Christmas morning.
This toy is a lot of fun and we recommend it!

The plane never worked because it kept dive bombing (it was REALLY bad balanced)and didn't have enough power; but the car was great because I have a really long driveway. The turbo feature was really cool but it made the battery time about half as long. IN A NUTSHELL, DON'T GET THIS IF YOU HAVE AAANNNYYY WANT TO FLY THE PLANE BECUSE IT DOESN'T WORK!!
