Default RE: super sonic

really?

I thought about an air hog but it kept swooping up and down, I think they call this porpouise? This one tried to do that but I tweaked the tail and it now flies like youd want.

Kids and I have ran this thing into the house a few times, tree'd it three times, ran it straight into the ground countless times. It keeps going. The wires that connect the electronics to the motors are thin and fragile, after a few times of the wing popping off, the wires come loose at the solder but fix that and its right back into action. The cool part, is the double sided tape that holds the wing on, its strong enough to fly but once it hits something, the wing pops off without major damage. drop it back on and throw it again.

Its a blast. I was wondering why more people dont use these.

I noticed on other twin engine "toy" planes, if you do a turn, one engine would cut off completely, which requires you to pulse the L and R but this one, both motors stay running, however, one cuts power on half, so the turns are smooth.

Only thing I could compare this to is the cox 2ch I bought years ago, despite its rudder function, there was no advantage to it over this one, as far as flight ease and function.
