If, you're only looking at those two I'd take the aero bird! I've got a sky fly! Dont like it. I infact prefer the Red Hawk from the same company better even if the red hawk is of less quality.. if you want something else thats, I'd check out the hobbico ventura from tower hobbies! not the mini ventura just the regular one its about $109 I've flown the crap out of that plane! and still love it!


if you do pick the sky fly! make sure you use it during super calm days! and make sure you reinforce the push rods they are really super flexible and don't work very well. I just used some heat shrink tubing and a small dowel. place the dowel along side the push rod at the area where it bends when you activate the controls. Let me see if i can better explain. the idea here is to simply have the dowel prevent the rod from bending so place it where the wire bends when you move the controls and use the heat shrink tubing to secure it there. works nicely.. but I don't like this plane at all! Thats just me.

There are plenty of other planes I'm sure others will chime in.
