That's excellent! always though about getting one of those, but a bit pricey!
I have an RC plane that I have only used once, takes a lot more room to fly than I thought.

Forgot to ask, can I use the photo?

Yiou can get cheaper ones but not with the features the Phantoms have got.
There is a short video taken at the Easter meet, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Sorry for hijacking the thread, but how would you rate it to fly? Is it the same as a helicopter plane or easier?

Never flown a remote helicopter so cant compare personally, but from what i have heard they are hard to fly as your always on the controls just to keep them in the air, the quads are GPS and if you let go of the controls they just hover on the spot.
I do find it fairly easy to fly, only bit i struggle with is when its facing you as the left and right controls are reversed. Anyone with any remote control experience will find it very easy

So tempted.....
