Just put this together between work shifts today. Every piece is new. The wings are old and broke, I have new ones but I will shatter the old first. No point in breaking my new ones haha.

My brother and I bought this 2 years ago and it's been on the shelf since we moved here because we had broke it to the point of no fixing. Best thing about it, all parts total $35 and 2 day shipping on amazon haha.

I plan to build some more serious planes later this summer

After seeing Awk's, I had to get some of these cree LED flashlights.

I got these 2500 lumen ones for $9 a piece on eBay. They are so cool it isn't funny

They even come with Handle bar mounts. I mounted them up playing around.

the chincy chargers they come with burn up the batteries

 

[dirtysquared]

Yeh those are, but its still only a 1 cell lipo

The batteries i use in my plane are about half the size and only 150 mAh.
damn i should buy that flashlight and put that battery in my plane! 4000mAh i could fly for an hour

lmao, it did. then we smashed it a few dozen times

i took it out to fly (in my back yard) and hit a tree within 10 seconds and broke the wing haha

I have been thinking on getting my kids an rc plane. Of course I would have to test it out first and make sure its safe and all .. I like the gas ones. I thought this one looked pretty cool for the price.

I would like a gas one though. I always wanted to strap some bottle rockets to one somehow and figure some way to light them while in flight. It would be like its shooting missiles ..

For @speedyslyder

lol cool man
im actually bored with my slow azz car
i wanted better or to upgrade this one,but with the way things work around here
it would be a miracle if that ever happens.
im might just sell it cuz it is too slow for me..unless i dump like 200 bucks into which would be a miracle again

Seems like they will hold up. The mounts feel pretty solid. I don't ride at night though, but I might have to take it for a spin to try it out
