Be warned, the Flyzone Albatross is EXREMELY fragile and will not take too many rough landings, even in grass. Mine broke the landing gear in a soft grass landing. The wing struts are very weakly glued to the wings and fuselage. The whole plane is made rather flimsy with very fragile materials. I would go with the Hobbyzone Champ or Parkzone UM T-28 Trojan.
I'm not sure about your Albatros but mine has been solid and tough!
It has survived encounters with 3 trees- 3 crash landings and highly recommended to buy!!!
I like flying my Albatros more than my old Fokker DR1!!
