I bought a Eflite T34 last month, it is the best looking, best flying planes ever. The transmitter uses 4 AA batts which made me think it wouldn't do long flights. I have run the transmitter over an hour on rechargeables. I put larger wheels on it to enable take off on gravel roads (no really big gravel). My only complaint is the two small magnets that hold the canopy on. Mine came off and the plane was hard to control. I put the optional servo in so I had full comtrol over the flaps which saved the plane I believe. A new canopy $14.00 really reasonable with plywood base, plastic canopy, magnets and finished to match the plane. Takes great pix with the Flycam One -2. A real beautiful plane in the air and setting in the model room. Hobby Zone is where I bought it.
