Ok so I have a dilemma, my friend who is been into electric flight for years has told me not to get the nitro plane because it is too much of a pain in the butt, that i am going to crash it first time out, and I will hate it after awhile.
I really want to try this stuff out. I have electric park flyers and stuff and since i enjoy the sound of my nitro trucks and cars I think it would be neat to try out.
Another thing is that I think i have a GREAT deal here. Check it out......

I flew the plane about 50 times in total and it is in good condition with only a few scuffs. All batteries have been charged and cycled and appear to be in good shape.
