I love the living tweedle out of this little airplane and Mammoth Hobbies too!!! :-)
I think that the Guillow's Tuffoam™ R/C Fun Flyer "Park Flyer" Airplane excels at most all for a two-channel R/C!!! And Mammoth Hobbies is nothing to sneeze at either!!! :-) I took this plane out to the park shortly after receipt and had nothing but great flights -- it even lifted off on its own from a paved section of sidewalk ringing the socker fields I flew it in; lifting off on its own is not shown aywhere in the user manual. The manual indicates that this plane can be hand-launched only! And it lifted off on its own on more than just one or two occasions; pretty much ruling out a fluke. The only thing I had to do was adjust the vertical elevator down (to help prevent stalling) and then it flew in a most excellent manner. But having to make adjustments is par for the course with all R/C aircraft...e.g., I do not consider this a negative at all: "not no how not no way" as they say. Negatives? Only one so far: The propellers tend to disengage from the unicomplex...er...uh..I mean disengage from the motor shafts during landings in grass -- however this is a very simple and quick "repair" that can be made in the field without tools of any type; heck you can even sdo it without first turning the plane off, so your flights are virtually uninterrupted. If I had to give this product a rating (on a scale of one to five radios), I'd have to give this studly little airplane a full five radios -- in fact, it received this very rating on my website!!! Mammoth Hobbies was extremely pleasant to deal with as well; the price was good and the plane arrived considerably more rapidly than expected -- just three days ftom when I ordered to when I received the product! If I had to give Mammoth Hobbies a rating (using the same "1 to 5 radios" rating system that I used when rating the product itself), they deserve a full 5 radios!!! :-) Three cheers for Mammoth Hobbies: Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!! HIP HIP HOORAY!!!
