RE: Fastlane Air Raptor
It flies! Just put it through the test but a little windy today. I don't think I could have flown an Aero Ace but this did fly relatively good. I will have to check it later when the wind dies. Anyone else test this yet?

Tested again with no wind and actually not as good. Very heavy and wants to take a right most of the time and sink. Seems like it will not climb. will test tomorrow than get another and see if they all have problems. Looked good on purchase.

I have not seen that yet. Is that the controller that came with it? If so, it is a Silverlit product. Your regular controller should fly it just fine.

Thats the controller that came with it. 18" wingspan but fall or drops tooo much. TRU 39.95 interesting will test again tomorrow. Because it wants to turn right even with the trim ajusted I might return and try another.

RE: Fastlane Air Raptor
i hear that the white ones fly alot better because they dont have the added weight from the latex paint on them. i have the white one and no problems what so ever. has plent of lift, does tend to drift one way or another, but with a simple bump to the steering in the opposite direction and the wings level out. also i tried it with the 5th cell mod and it worked great. longer flights, better lift, more speed. rog in alot less space. chris
