Default RE: Recommend a Backyard Flyer

Aero Ace (a BLAST!)
or
Slow stick (Slow flier)
or
Slo-V (slow flyer)

I have the Slo-V and Aero Ace. The Aero Ace can be flown in VERY small areas, my backyard is about 1/8th an acre and I own the sky over about 3 houses with it! For $30 you can't go wrong and it's virtually indestructable.

The Slo-V is MUCH BIGGER but flys slow and needs a hair more room. Can roll off ground (ROG) in about 10-15 feet at full throttle. GREAT plane IMHO!

For a place with a LOT of room an Easystar RTF is awesome, I just got one. I have a pic of the Slo-V and Easystar on my web site, go to the My misc. images section...
