Default RE: How is this plane?

Thanks everyone for the opinions. I just awnted to see what everyone had to say about this plane. I actually have one but I wanted to see if eveyone was as mad as I was. After about the fourth flight, the rudder pushrod got caught in the styrofoam and caused it to get into a deadly spiral. Good thing though was that it was covered on the warranty. Then, when I got the replacement plane a new problem arose. The speed control doesn't want to go to neutral. So now they want me to send that back. It is making me very mad.

But I have to agree with everyone when they say that it flies like cr*p. It is very fast and does not want to land, even though it doesn't want to climb either. But after I total the plane (which I hope I don't), I will use the electonics for a plane that I will create.

Hey Casey, how many times have you flown it? Can you give me any tips to landing this beast? Can you retrofit it to land on grass? It just seems like every time I go to land, I get extremely nervous and carelessly risk the plane.

Dang, I just hope my plane doesn't arrive at the same fate as yours did. I'm sorry about that. I know the crashes suck.
