Just make a paper airplane. It's cheaper and it'll last longer.

Everything Air Hogs makes is total shit. #1 is right. Their shit breaks in mere seconds of use...

These shitty flying things are everywhere. I guess gas planes are the only way to go.

If I were so inclined to see a flying piece of shit I'd visit the monkey exhibit at the zoo.

Stick with helicopters if you're looking for cheap RC flyers, and avoid airhogs.

A) these are crap. Even the dude that designed them said the plant in china totally botched the manufacture. You need to go thru a mod to even get it to fly correctly. I've seen these as cheap as $7 and still didn't pick one up.

B) #2, I agree that everything Air Hogs makes is crap, but not everything they license is. Quite a bit of the stuff they sell in the US is silverlit stuff, and it's amazing. The air hogs line of RC planes is stunning from a cost/performance factor, and I haven't had very many issues with equipment dying on me.

can anybody recommend a good rc flyer for flying outside a ten story building on top of a hill?
