its a lot harder to fly a model than it is with the cartoon although I dont think so because I fly models and they call me a landing expert and I have a me-163 myself and its not that simple but the cartoon is alot harder

Bosco, did they give you a hat that says "Landing Expert?"

Do you have any landing tips for the non experts?

Any landing you walk away from is a good landing, that's what I hear anyway.

my dad had a huge R/C tempest once upon a time, until he lost it in a bad thunder storm which sprung outta nowhere, winds hit 50-60 from almost nothing in under 5 mins. he tried to land quick and hurried in too slow, He nearly went into a vertical spin but before that gush of cross-wind wind took it into the ground.
