Editorial Review

While the Airhog plane is indisputably powerful with its simple pump-up engine and undeniably fun with its tremendous flying range and height, there has always been the small matter of trying to keep the plane from getting away and ending up lost in trees, neighbors yards, busy roads, or bodies of water. The planes are great but essentially uncontrollable and, unless you live in, say, the desert that can sometimes be a bit of an issue. Fortunately, the Dominator (love the name) features some basic controls, letting the pilot on the ground steer the craft up, down, left, and right. As RC planes go, it’s not the most easily guided but the rudimentary controls should be sufficient to guide the plane along a relatively safe path. The manufacturer claims it can fly up to 300 feet and the plane’s body is fairly solid though still made of Styrofoam and therefore inherently fragile. The cool black styling makes it look like a spy plane. --Charlie Williams

There is very little flight time and it requires frequent recharges. It is styrofoam! When this breaks (and it will) save the packing material because you might be able to fly it too. We were greatly disappointed in this. It took forever to get into the air and once it did, it crash landed and broke a wing. We're taking this piece of junk back tomorrow. Be warned or be disappointed!

Ok, I'm 32 years old, I have read all the reviews and all the people who say this plane does not fly must have a defective one or they just don't have any common sense. When you take it out of the box, without any power, it fly's like a paper airplane...only a lot better. Rule number one; this thing weighs only a couple of ounces, so don't be taking it out if you see the leaves on the trees moving! Rule number two; Don't play with this toy in the street...the thing is styrofoam! Go out on the street...take a running dive and you will look like the plane did when you crash landed it. Rule number three; no matter how good of a flyer you think you are this will take time to master and should be played on soft ground or 3 inch or longer grass. Tonight I took this plane for 10 rounds of flights...no wind..nice field...the plane flies great for a cheap toy. Each flight I got better at it. I got this plane over 200 feet in the air...all controlled, not only that, when the plane started to loose power I aimed the plane for a course for me...cut the engines and caught it. Every landing I had tonight resulted in a belly landing; just get the plane level 5 feet off the ground and cut the engines.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BEGINER PLANE, November 23, 2005

A Kid's Review

= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars

The plane flys great and handles fine . Here is a tip take some clear packing tape and cover the edges of the wings this will increase the durability of the plane and reduces drag . I did this and the plane flew better than before and also made the wings stronger . Also double charge gives it more flight time . PS had a Hawk that gave a close fly by.
