Default RE: f-4E PHANTOM {BLUE ANGELS}

personally I think these edf's are a rip of. The electronics were poor quality and the trim barelly works. Now this is no excuse for my crash but you get what you pay for. The f-4 is to fast and to small to enjoy flying because I had to work my but off to keep it in the air and everyone said to bring it back to 2/3 power for some reasons. It took off great from paved runway. It was fun and a little twichy but nothing I could not get used to. Then the plane snapped and since it has barely any wings there was no way I could gain enough airspeed to save it. The plane WILL NOT FLY SLOW. After the crash I did not have the since to put it back together because its ugly. I should of gone with the f-18. Its bigger and excellent from what I hear. Look at the videos, you will only find 2 videos of the f-4 which one of them is from factory and the other nitroplanes. Guy gave a crappy review if you ask me.

I feel better though. I just bought a sukhoi su-31 .40 from phoenix models. for a $130 arf with great reviews, looks, and performance why not? Going to put a Magnum .70 so that should give me some bang for my buck. Look for it at towerhobby.
