Default Fun Flyer For Under $300 RTF??

I am looking for a sport plane I can go out after work and just throw around the sky for under $300 RTF. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Electric Foamies are the solution to your problem!! Small and transportable.......very cheap (under $150)....you can fly em anywhere, even in the parking lot at work!

You can thank me later!!!

OMP EP katana is the solution. Everything in one box including the tx, lipo, and charger. Plus a really great built airframe that is very tough. And I mean VERY tough.

Those are great but I've already got a ep 3d and a edf. Is there any nitro burners out there? Other than the trainers.

If you don't mind building, I would look at the 52" Fusion, It simply flys better and is stronger than any plane out there. Float around the sky all day, draw the best line ever seen or hang it all out on the deck 3D'n.
If you want an ARF take a look at the Katana V2.
Both planes would be the exact ticket to your request.

Did you go to the Memphis PB????? I acquired a 52" fusion and it's awesome. Rock solid. Tracks like it's on rails and slows down to a crawl for 3D. I believe I'll always have one in my hangar. It's sweet..... Heres a pic. I didn't build it. JoeBob did....... He did a wonderful job.......

No I didn't make it down there this year, to many places to be all at the same time.
So you're the lucky one that ended up w J.B's Fusion! Cool! It's hard to describe how well these things fly, ya just gatta experiance it for yourself (as I'm sure you know now LOL) Anyway, I heard there was a lil wind last weekend[sm=eek.gif]
I love the scheme on that plane, I may just have to uhhmmmm "Borrow " it for mine, course i'll give back when I'm done LOL

Hey Iowa, that's a real nice 52" Fusion! I love the schemes you guys are coming out with these days. Way better than I could do. Can you share some flight pics or video of that Fusion flying?

Maybe if Constrictor ever shows up at the flying field he could tape it or take pictures. I don't own a video camera, but do have a digital camera.

It's one sweet plane. When are the arfs coming out?? I'll probably order one just for a back up.
