Default RE: reply "Good First Planes" by mk

I have recently bought the Mad Max. It is a nice flying plane. more than capable of anything I would want to do with it and slows down nicely for landings. My biggest dislike is runtime on the reccommend battery- it is only around 5-6 mins. Iw ill be going brushless and lipo soon. If you are unsure of your skills for ailerons, just make sure to get a good radio with dual rate so you can turn them down with the flick of a switch- that is what I had to do since I tend to be rough on the sticks and almost always overcorrect. It greatly helps me in take off and landing. When I want to go nuts, I flip the D/R off and let 'er rip.

You right on the spot with the quick replies Matt, thanks.
But I ordered one shortly after postin last night(impulive).
It looks really chincy but also easy to rebuild...if it lasts me 10 -20 flights it was worth it. I have to come to grips with the fact that the cheaper models in ep don't like it breezy. I will upgrade to something nicer in a few weeks or so, I like the Super Impress or maybe Mad Max (which seems tough).

(your thoughts??)

Also bought a flight sim for the pc, should have it this weekend.

Thanks again...Joe
