    I gave it to a friend of mine and he did a couple of test flights.It had a good straight line of flight.It was over powered on the first one it nosed down and crashed.Second flight it was under powered ad the tail broke off when it hit the ground.I got it back from and found out that they did not set the CG on it before they tried it out.
