I have not flown RC for over 15 years. Recently I have a renewed interest in the hobby because of the RC electric revolution, especially in the park flyer area.

I started out just before christmas with a $50.00 Airtech Stealth Hornet that i bought at Walmart. This little plane is a twin prop pusher powered wing. The plane uses differential motor control for steering, there are no control surfaces. See [link=http://www.interactivetoy.com]This link[/link].

I took the Stealth Hornet to a small park in my area and launched it. To my surprize it flew just fine in calm weather. The plane climbs with power on and decends with power off, the differntial steering is sufficient to make turns in a small park but it is not spectacular. Flight time is about 5 minutes with a 15 minute charge.

I have about 6 flights and a few crashes on the little wing now and have found it to be fairly crash resistant. My 11 year old son who has never flow RC before did just fine with it aswell. It's true what they are advertising, little kids can fly these things, maybe you just got a bad plane or a bad product.
