I agree with you. I would recommend this plane. I only have 3 tanks of feul ran thru mine but the first flights have been fun with no surprises. I have a D/A 50 on mine and had to put the batteries all the way forward to somewhat balace. By that I mean its a tad tail heavy but flies like a dream. The only thing it doesn't do well is knife edge it has a lot of coupling and pulles to the wheels. I dont have any mixing in my radio yet but may have to later.
