Went out flying yesterday with niece, wind was 10 to 20mph and we had a low overcast. She was having a ball specking the Teddy out and losing it in the clouds. Flew out about six batteries and decided we had had enough and brought everything home in one piece. I've flown most of the stuff that's been discussed here and I still say the Easy Star would give you the most bang for the buck, real radio, real servo's, real speed control and a plane that can actually be flown by a beginner.

PS We're not going to fly today, the wind's 35 to 50. My niece thinks it's just a little bit too windy.
