This is by far the best Nitro plane on the market. I am messing with a H9 Show Time 4-D and it is not as good as the Mayhem in manny ways. The thing that I really like about the Mayhem is its ability to slow down, it is the slowest flying 3-D machine by far. I wrote this for you guys who are wondering if you should get the Mayhem or something else. For $209 it is the best plane in its class by far. I always find myself comming back to my Mayhem, its that good. It could be the elevation where I fly and the 1160 sq" wing really makes a difference here. I just know that from the first flight I knew I had something special with the Mayhem. Its a total blast to fly and I always have fun when I fly it, I cant say the same for any other Nitro plane right now. The only other plane I fly that is as fun is the E-flite YAK-54. Its a little foamy but its big on thrills. The Mayhem is by far the most stable 3-D nitro plane I have seen it does so manny things well that you have to fly one and once you do you will be spoiled. I 5hink the next level is 30% or bigger.
