The Typhoon 3D is a fun plane. A blast to fly.

The motors tend to go very quickly however and for me they were quite problematic until I replaced the included motor with a cheapie Walkera Inrunner I had laying around.

Yes you can white glue the plane together many times. An equal number of times you are stuck buying replacement parts.... which can over time cost you more than a new plane.

If I were to do it all over again, I would have never purchased the RTF version of the Typhoon and I would have stuck to the Receiver Ready version instead.

It is a very poor beginners plane, and beginners will tend to drive it nose first into the ground causing a lot of damage... I've seen them arrive at our field with this plane, which never makes it home in the hands of a novice.

Keep it, and put it away. Save it for later.

Get yourself a trainer and start with that.
