naw Guppy, they make these things out of plastic, hardened foam, and carbon-fiber these days.... it should only break into about 6 or 7 pieces!  :)

Stang, I think they are using the flight model from AWIII for that 38. Remember how many times ya bounced that one down the runway before it stopped LOL!!

I have the p-51 the spitfire and the zero, all great flyers but I reccomend you start on a good trainer first, these are little tip stalling devils, I also have too of the me 109s they offer

this is what I've been flying lately.

http://www.icare-rc.com/stinger.htm

Makes my knees knock every time. Does about 120-130mph with 28" wingspan and it gets small real quick.

Think I'm gonna get the LA7 for some more relaxed flying.

unfortunately I can't afford any of these :( Got one son in collage, and the second one warming up for it ! Aww the heck with being a good Dad, I think I'm going to let them pay there own way!  LOL!!

Been looking at some cheaper things, but I'd lke to have something with 4 channels, and something that is not only good slow..so I can get the hang of it :)... but something that when I DO get the hang of it I can have some fun throwing it around a bit. Any suggestions?
