Product Review (submitted on March 16, 2016):

This is really a nice kit. I'm teaching my kids to fly with it and they are having a blast. It handles a wide range of windy conditions well. The motor is pretty powerful using a 2200 mA battery. Note the web site here doesn't inform you that you will need special glue to assemble this, but they do sell it. Get that right away and save the hassle later. The control horn that gets mounted on the elevator needs reinforcement I found. I ended up putting a small backer plate on top of the elevator and putting two small screws to sandwich it all together. They also sell little control horns for control surfaces here if you prefer those. Otherwise it fly's great! Belly landing on the grass at a park is smooth and easy. I did take the precaution to add reinforced packaging tape on the belly to strengthen it, but that's not required.
