as the above guy says.. this one is heavy.. and it does need atleast three motors to run it.. it is so fragile.. and breaks very easily... the first time i flew it.. it nose dived and broke the front part...with a 10 ft fall... i was so dis appointed with this product.. and this seller cheated saying that this could fly.. as an engineer.. i strongly say that given the power of this motor.. it would definetly not fly.. no matter from where you fly it...

My son waited two weeks to get this plane. What a disappointment. First attempt to fly it dropped like a rock. At a gentle toss, full throttle at about 5 feet it fell and the nose piece and part of the wing fell off. The only way this plane will fly is if you attached helium balloons to it. Save your money, don't buy this 'airplane'.

I tried many times to get this piece of foam to fly. No matter what i did it hit the ground. Wish i would of had waited for someone else to buy and write a review first.

WooooW. This is the worst decision I have made since I joined the Army on Aug 18, 2001. What a piece of garbage. The motor on this plane is so weak I doubt if it could lift a paper airplane of half this size. Nose dive, nose dive, nose dive, nose dive into the trash can.

The only think is true on the box is "the plane is simple to assemble"
The design has a big flaw: the weight of the battery. The battery cells are so heavy that the plane would need three engines to thrust it and take off. The box say "This strong "jet" plane is made of poly plastic" The plane is made with expanded polystyrene (EPS), so fragile that it takes one foot tall fall to break any part.
Byers BEWARE!

This product is yet another rubbish product out of China. Cost is high and the quality of the product extremely low. Made of polystyrene that is flimsy, badly made and has little chance of flying 5 metres before plunging to the ground and disintegrating. It certainly does not do what it says on the box and indeed must contravene the Trade Discriptions Act. As well as the build the instructions are extremely poor. Having purchased it for my grandson to have it wrecked on its first flight left him very distressed.
I would strongly advise that this product and any others of this type "made in China" should be avoided at all cost as you will just be thowing your money down the drain. Selling organisations should review the ethics of selling such complete rubbish.

It flew better than the other reviewers did, about 100 feet before it hit something because the tail controls didn't work well enough. After that it nose dove a couple of times before the nose cone broke. Pushing the battery back did help a bit but the tail servo needs a longer throw.

I wish I had read the reviews here before buying. Right out of the package nose cone was off and rudder needed extra tape to straighten, canopy latch not glued in right place had to modify. Like the other reviews first flight nose heavy went from 7 ft. right to the ground and popped nose off, little glue stuck back on next three attempts same thing but plane turned a little on 5th attempt and broke main wing almost all the way off (decal was holding it on) on right side and broke the tip as well. Glued and packaging tape worked well and decided to tape other side main wing and horizontal stabilizer. Next three attempts same thing with nose heavy and broke nose past the nose cone, more tape and attempt again only this time bent up the little elevator on the horizontal stabilizer and got it up for about 50 feet until I clipped a tree and broke vertical stabilizer. So after glue and tape again I thought I had it figured out but next attempt I launched a little to steep and came straight down on nose and smashed in pretty good, so you guessed it more glue and tape and a couple of pieces of foam to fill in the gaps and a piece under the nose cone to give the nose cone a little more clearance from the ground. Then I taped the elevator up so it couldn't go down at all and on the next attempt we had SUCCESS, flew for a good 4-5 minutes and had a not so good landing but no more damage and the next 5 times I've flown have been mostly successful and with a little head wind it likes to climb, got it up to about 20 feet. Too many nose heavy crashes in the beginning and even now with some not so good landings I've had to glue the cockpit back to the fuselage. I have what looks to be the same model but 2 things mentioned in description that are not true is 1: Included is a two-channel variable speed radio control that also works as the planes charger and re-chargeable battery is not the case, it only has a wall charger. 2: and the battery I have is 7.2 volt 220 mAh not 300 mAh reported here less output I guess but it does fly now just kind of UGLY looking. No landing gear

The people that got there even running did better than me mine never worked out of the box glad to see even if it did
it would not fly.

save your money get a better rc plane

This thing looks cool...but that's about it! As the previous previews say...it doesn't fly at all...maybe if it had a stronger motor..and landing wheels.
