chubbysdad,
Hey! im an ABX flier ( some times )
And yes .. fly in Pro Mode .. in Sport mode you just don't have enough control ( Sport Mode AKA Crash and have to buy more parts Mode... great for HobbyZone .. bad for you
)
the ABX is a nice flying plane though .. a bit "extreme" for a beginner pilot imo.. Its a "graceful Flying plane not a twitchy flier so if you can keep it in one piece for 15 or 20 flights you will actually grow to like it .. allot .. my abx is my lawn chair plane .. being its forgiving and easy to fly once you get use to it (and the batteries last a long time) so you will find that a lawn chair comes in handy
