Default RE: Is the fighterbird worth it?

ORIGINAL: triggerdawg

well thank you for the advice........the thing is that i bought the outlaw for my girlfriend and my freinds and i toke her to fly it. i personally didn't enjoy the planr like she did, but for $40 bucks and her being happy it was worth it.
my friends have no experience with rc planes and just wanted something to kinda get everyone together with. so i think for them it should be ok......all they want to do is shoot each other down. what i wanted to know is do you think that they will get bored with it easily and is using the combat module fun.
You know, I think you posted to the wrong forum. There's a whole Electric forum category, and within it I believe there's a park flyer forum. The readers there might be more friendly to the Fighterbird than we are. I don't see that any of us have claimed actual combat module Fighterbird experience.

Not to speak for the others, but I sort of doubt that the Fighterbird planes are maneuverable enough for any kind of "dogfighting". just my humble opinion. I think the other guys who have responded may be thinking the same thing.

If you ever see a combat event, where the little glow or electric planes are trailing streamers, and capturing the other guys streamers on the glue-painted leading edge of their wings... you might want to try that!

Good luck,
