Dude if you saw VooDooChild fly one of those wind is not a factor just means less people at the field and more fun for you .Fly the wind its great practice and make things much easier on those calm days.Good Luck great plane.

I would go out but my brother doesn't like to fly in wind, and my dad wants him to test fly it. It's pretty dumb.

Ha, i got it flying today, it Knife Edges well and does good rolling circles, not enough power to hover... i tried 14x4 and 14x6, the 14x4 sucked, the 14x6 was a little better. What prop would work the best for 3D? I have a OS .61 2 stroke on it, everyone said a 14x4 would work the best but it sucks, no power, so what prop would work best?

for 3D you should use a 13x4W apc, I have used many propellers and that its the best by far, hope that help.

I got it out again with the 13x5 on it and it flies a lot better!

DoubleA: I got mine from Accel hobby, but if you do get it you have to beef it up or it will fly apart on the first flight
