I'm going to chime in here too. I owned and flew this bird before we started carrying it (now you know why we carry it!). Imagine driving to a parking lot or field on your way to work, stepping out of your car and plugging your 1500 2 cell Kokam up, hand launching your Mini Gee Bee and then hovering, torque rolling, flat spinning and everything else for 20 minutes. Then you hover the thing back into your hand, step back into your car and proceed on to work.
This is not your mother's depron foam plane. It is wild or mild. I have been addicted for many months now and I still bring it with me everytime I go out. Now that it's cold I can use it in the gym as well.
This thing rocks.
