AMAZING fun little plane, maybe not for beginners
I LOVE this plane, it’s small, has great maneuverability, looks beautiful, and is very powerful for its size (around 70mph), some things like high alphas are difficult but scale maneuvers and beyond scale maneuvers are a breeze and the plane looks excellent while doing so.**BUT THIS IS NOT A FIRST PLANE**First of all this listing of this plane is BNF Basic (Bind And Fly) which means you still need a battery, charger, and transmitter, which is pricey. Secondly this plane is not easy to land, its stall characteristics are pretty brutal at times and without a decent sized runways slowing down enough without stalling can be difficult, and if you try and hand launch it without a second person sometime a wingtip will stall and dip that side into the ground pretty nastily and without both hands it’s can be almost impossible to recover from. Also if you do get into a crash it will likely be pretty nasty because this plane is not very durable. The nose is quite weak but most of the time it’s nothing a little glue and tape can’t fix. The big one though is the steerable nose wheel likes to come loose of the foam and break and that is a pain to fix (some hot glue in the hole should fix it).Lastly if you do pick up this wonderful warbird get the Asurion protection plan that is offered with it because no matter now experienced of a pilot you are, if you are flying this plane regularly you will probably crash it (or have a rough landing) and having the peace of mind that it reallly doesn't matter if you crash it is great.

Edf fun
Love this plane. Been flying for about 10 yrs and this is great because it’s somewhat cheap, very very portable, and easy to transport in its box. If you get it and you’re new to EDF flying, make sure to watch some videos and look at the landing slope. The landing gear is a tiny wire, but so far after about 40 flights they’re still holding up keep your speed up and flare a tiny bit at the last second and you’ll be all good. Enjoy.

Fragile But Flies Great
It’s actually a very easy jet to fly if you have basic skills. Flew it about four or five times. On the last flight I made a pilot error very close to the ground and it truly did break into a million pieces. There is no room for error on this little guy. As long as you don’t make a mistake, great plane just not durable anyone who claims this is trash doesn’t know how to fly a micro edf

Cool plane... Beware of seller. I was sold a broken and glued mess
The media could not be loaded. I received it and it was obvious it was crashed. Glue all over, broken pieces, LOL even a Popsicle stick was glued under one wing.

A great flying ducted fan.
This is a relatively easy ducted fan to fly. Yes it is fast so it isn't for novice flyers but for sure intermediate or above flyers will find it easy to handle. To land it properly you need to be a throttle jockey as you have to constantly run the throttles to control landing approach and attitude. However, throttle control on landing is a skill anyone needs to handle higher performance models and especially ducted fans.I usually build everything from scratch but this little ARF is a blast. considering buying the larger Eflite A-10 based on the handling properties of this A-10.

Out of the box excellence
What else can I say. It's an Eflight. Flies perfectly right out of the box. The V2 is more ridged, more durable.

recieved two defective jets, unbelievable
I gotten defective stuff from amazon before but its usually chinese products and never two times in a row. The first plane i got didnt even power up so i returned it and ordered a new one the same day because i knew it would take a month to refund my money. I receive this plane and they look so good, its big for a umx and my first edf. i plug it in and it beeps like its binded up before i even bind it i go through the binding procces and everything works except the throttle. unplug and reconnect and the throttle works so i go to taxi across my kitchen floor and notice one of the jets isnt spinning . i really want this plane but idk of im gonna order a third

Read Me! Set plane up correctly!
I crashed on maiden flight due to bad CG. After repairs I built a cg stand and determined that I needed about 4 grams at the rear of fuse…this was incorrect. After looking close inside fuselage I noticed 2 ribs in floor of battery area. If you place the battery on top of them and slide it all the way to the rear, it flies like a dream. Absolute Joy to fly.If you place the battery on the bottom and slide it to the face of those ribs, you will lawn dart and cry. I seeeeeen me do it. Haha.
