Need foamy for indoors
I need a foamy that can be flown indoors. It needs to be one that can be flown by a noob who just soloed
 . I like the look of the eflite extra 260, and someone said that it was too big, and suggested the CR-1 charger. What do ya'll think?Any teens in my area? or anyone

Re: Need foamy for indoors
Don't get the extra 260, it's touchy and fast if you don't build it perfectly. I'd say get a vrolet or something by fancy foam, they fly great and are pretty easy to fly if you set them up right (mild throws, expo), if you want something extremely basic, get a gws pico stick. lol

Re: Need foamy for indoors
The Pluma by Great Planes flies well and only 45.00 however kinda fragile.

Re: Need foamy for indoors
If you just soloed and want something easy, affordable, and adorable, I say go with any of the park zone 3 ch micros. If you don't have a gym or a larger area to fly in, get the park zone vapor. If you want something aerobatic, that can advance with you as you get better then get a fancy foam plane. I would go with the vrolet as a first foamy. Just set it up with lots of expo and low throws.
