It arrived yesterday and I flew it this evening, using the "intermediate" setting on the nice DX4 transmitter. It flew great! I hand launched but used the landing gear because the props are vulnerable in a belly landing. I would say that the plane is faster than the Firebird Stratos, handles better in wind due to the advanced stability features, and has a lot of visual impact. The twin engine delta wing design gets people's attention. It came with an extra battery as well, and I was not expecting that-- a nice bonus. If you have a Firebird Stratos those batteries will work in this plane, and vice-versa. This is just a great airplane and it can offer more as your flying skills improve. I should mention that it has a very gentle stall. It simply drops the nose and starts flying again. The wings stay level. Very forgiving! This is a great addition to my modest stable of rc park flyers.
