I almost did that yesterday... which one did you get, the bi-plane, or the Stealth bomber-lookin' plane? I'm real curious how this will fly indoors.

The bi-plane is easier to fly, and can make a sharper turn. I have heard of people getting stealth bombers with problems. I strongly suggest you get the bi-plane.

Yeah, my understanding is that the bipe can be flown in much tighter spaces.

I picked up the yellow/red/black bipe myself. It's actually a little bigger than I thought it would be, the pictures are a little misleading (to me anyway).

I've got a 11'x17' (9 1/2' high) Living Room and with the very little time I've flown the AA I'd say the only way this thing is an "indoor" flyer is if you've got a HUGE living room or you're flying it in a gymnasium.

That's not to say that after some practice and learning to fly the AA well that I couldn't make it fly in small/tight circles in my living room...But that would be fun for about 30 seconds.

Nah, in my opinion; The AA is a no/calm wind outdoor, or indoor gymnasium flyer.
