With this complete kit the beginner is more focused on flying and learning the basics of RC flight. At the field, the beginner is further helped by the design features built into the model. It has rubber band attached wing which helps soften the damage to the wing in case of a rough landing. The pusher style motor design has the benefits of protecting the prop behind the front of the nose cone of the plane. In addition, the landing gear are built study and rugged to help with those hard landings. The fuselage is even designed to be flexible and more impact-resistant.

We have this plane for two years. After a learning curve my 14 year old can fly and land this thing like a pro. It survived many early crashes, most were repairable with package tape, glue, and toothpicks. After trimming wings and flying into powerlines (by dad), it still flies great. We will keep this bird in the air as long as we can.
