The rolling fury has pretty much disappeared as it was a 2007 model I believe. Air Hogs in general are very hard to find, but your best bet is probably a SuperTarget store if they have those where you are.

The rolling fury is good for about 1 weekend of fun, then it is time to move on! Or atleast that is my experience. They are tiny and will only take about 2 mph wind before being hard to manage. You will probably frustrate yourself as much as you enjoy the little bit of flying that you actually did. I wish I had a picture, but you should have seen me (48 year old man) 25' up in a pine tree trying to shake down a $20 plane...

Your time would probably be much better spent trying to find a local RC club/field.

Now while I have no experience with any of the airhogs planes, I do fly R/C down in Jordan at the TCRC field. If you are on a budget, there are some good ways to get into the hobby by buying planes secondhand online or at garage sales. If you are interested in coming down to the field sometime, PM me and we can setup a time. Otherwise I do have a foam plane that I fly in EP in the parks that is well equipped to handle winds more than 2 mph.
Best Regards,
Curtis
