Default RE: Begginer

It's the Firefly Commander 2 (sorry for the confusion). This is JUST about the most "idiot proof" plane you can get. It's even got a hard rubbber nose so if you whack something it just bounces off instead of CRUNCH!

it's only $85 and RTF (ready to fly it has the engine, servos, props, receivers, batteries, and even the transmitter). For $85, you REALLY can't beat that. PLUS the ACT (anti-crash technology) that will pull you out of an accidental dive automatically and save your plane. (you can deactivate this when you get some airtime under your wings so you don't have to think of it as an "it's going to give me bad habits" device; think of it as an "automatic buddy-box with an invisible instructor [&:] ). They DO make a cheaper one for $59, but it's smaller, more susceptible to wind conditions, and it doesn't have as much flight time or "add ons". For $25 a bigger more stable plane is worth it.

Good LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!
