Slotcar - there is a whole thread on the F16 - I have had it for several months. The short version is that it flys like a dart and land s like a dart. It takes a big flying area and has slow to indeterminate turning control with the single stick. Old style Nimhal battery for about 4 min flight. That said - it is a devil in flight - fast and sounds and looks great. BUT be prepared to loose it - make sure your name and address is on it. I call it the scarry flyng lawn dart.
