I like my Typhoon also. It's my second plane, my first was an Aerobird Extreme. I spent some time on my G3 flying the E3D before flying my Typhoon. I have the RTF and have no problem with the radio but it's probably a good idea to get the PNP and get a quality radio if you're going to stay in the hobby. The servos that came on my Typhoon strip out easily, most replace them with the HS 81-MG. If you read the Reviews forum this problem is common but everyone likes this plane including me.
