Well, I began flying 3 years ago in December. My first plane was an E-Flight Apprentice. My next plane was the Charger RC Fuzion, which is in the video below. I learned a lot on that plane, and crashed it a lot too.
ITs crazy it still flies! It definentally doesnt fly like my new fuzion or the 3DHS foamy, or my carbon z yak, but it still flies! I weighed it a couple weeks ago, and the total weight was almost double what the BRAND NEW flying weight is.
Here is a video of me flying it in the backyard. Of course, not being used to the weight, stalled it twice. The first one broke the fuse behind the wing a little, but still flew
Enjoy
