EVOL, the ad is true, it comes with everything listed. The battery charger is a 12v style and charges at about 1/2c rate - not super fast but pretty safe. The airframes are very tough, a lot more than the 3d buddy series I've flown. I've hit my trees in my back yard several times and only poked a few holes in the covering. As far as 3d flying the Kat does very well. My son and I pretty much do everything the bigger planes can do.
