I purchased the GP Lancair - thought it looked great, and on the ground, it does. It's my 5th plane and can honestly say don't waste your money - why:

1) The plane NEEDS flaps to land - very fast plane which will stall at a moments notice
2) Hard to see when flying around, especially on cloudy days - the thin wing just dissappears
3) You can't do much with it in the air apart from admire it's good lucks
4) Not cheap to fix - replacement wing plus wing tips = $104 at Tower
5) Landing is a real pain - if you get it wrong then either it bounces wildly or bends the nose gear - I land on tarmac
6) the wheels pants are rubbish - poor landings will destroy them faster than you can blink - replacements are $20+
7) if you cut out the front fuselarge as suggested then the replacement nose gear - Robart 654 does not fit without a load of work

Bottom line is that I crashed mine recently - I was flying very slow with full flaps into the wind - plane stalled - wing dropped v. quickly and plane spun into the ground!

If you want a forgiving but great flyer then try the GP Big Stik 60
