Not so bad after all
after school today i went to Harbor Freight Tools and i came across this twin prop rc plane called the yellow bee, it looked like a peice of crap but it was 30 bucks, why not, i buy it and go home briefly to charge to battery, turns out this thing is FAST for it genre needs some big areas for turning and a lot of asphalt or any other flat surface, so instead of getting an aero ace that u can only fly in dead calm conditions or indoors, get this for flying in between battery charges at the field or just to get a few minutes in on lunch break. oh and dont get in front of it on take off because it nailed me in the "jems" while attempting to take it off over my head.

I have heard quite a bit about the planes H. F. has. Anyone else ever gotten one of the Estes planes from WalMart? Mine flies great. I have flown it for several hours so far only had to epoxy the front landing gear back on from a hard landing. Gave a little over 50 for this one. Now that I have heard for myself that the planes at H.F. are good. I'll have to check them out.

I have one too. It's a Firebird knock off, butless $ In fact, it's actually made by the same manufacturer... Yep, there's your mark ups!!
I have a few Aero Ace's and I enjoy them too. Wasn't fond of the Estes vers. If you cut the throttle then turn, the bee will turn on a dime!
