I agree with the origanal poster. I too had this plane, and didn't like it at all. Kiss it good-bye if you deadstick, the elevator is too sensitive, the plane is way to heavy to be called a 40 size, and way too much extra money has to be spent to get it close to being "air worthy", and it would tip stall if you looked at it funny. I have heard that the other Extra's that Nitroplanes sells are top notch. I just think the ball was dropped with the design of this one. I have since bought another aerobat, and it doesn't have ANY of these bad habits.
