I don't think the pimps have seen this one... Its down for repairs at the moment and might not fly again because of how it flys....
Cruises at 25-30, and has enough power to easily go vertical... gives you such a rush flying it that your knees start shakin

Of course, very unrelaxing.. a one pound 40 inch span plane coming out of a slight dive at 40 isn't really my thing.
btw, esskay brushless motor on a 3s 2200 mah pack.
little video of it putterin around, generally flying about as slow as it can...

A retired plane that I enjoyed much more is this cessna. The Extra above had about 20 ounces of thrust with a 16 ounce all up weight. The cessna only had about 50 grams of thrust and weighed 75-90 grams.. It needed full throttle just to keep in the air most of the time. But it was a very relaxin plane and could even be flown in the front yard, as demonstrated below

Also have a Honey Bee (Fixed Pitch) RTF Kit en-route!
Heli's are awesome!

With my $10 coupons expiring real soon and with the picoo finally hitting the local stores around me, there's just no way I could pass that up. 4 was the right number; 2 at home for wife and me, 1 ripped apart for modding, 1 for work.
I had the opportunity to buy a Micro Mosquito too (the guy had to go digging in his new arrival boxes to find it so it's just now also hitting the local stores), but I couldn't get passed the fact that I only spent $20 more and got a "real" RTF helicopter!...So I passed on it.

Got my first heli today!!
A PiccoZ from RS.
Right now, I can't get it to take off. It keeps tipping to one side, but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it soon.
Cool little copter!!

Whoa! Just checked it out the Honey Bee FP is only $89+shipping RTF with radio and batts and all.
