I must have gotten the bad one of the batch. It was a brick. Evo 46 and 11x7 prop would make it fly, and it would move right along. You just didn't want to deadstick. If you didn't have 80 - 100 ft altitude, you could not recover from a stall in one piece. After about 8 flights I got rid of the stock landing gear, mine were very soft. The plane seemed to be very influenced by crosswinds, putting me in some real precarious situations, I never did crash it though. I decommissioned it before I could break it.
