I don't think my cat will ever be the same :D

Amazon has them for $20, if you have $20 to blow, buy one :thumbsup:

It's all fun and games until your cat does a pounce and takes it out and it explodes when it crashes thus setting your cat on fire and when the cat runs all over the place setting your house on fire and gets the last laugh.

Yep, I have one of the plastic ones, pretty fun. Though the cat got tired of it pretty quickly.

What's the battery life like though? I always see people saying these are really cool but will only fly for about 2-3 minutes before needing a charge again...

I loved RC cars when I was a kid. I had about 15 or so of the really cheap ones. I would take them apart and play with the motors. When I was 12 I wanted to make my own, but never got around to really doing it.

I think I might get one of these for the nephew of one of my friends. He'd probably break it pretty quick, though.

Now is a good as time as any to build your own. I've got this bad boy sitting in my garage.

Problem is I can't get the engine running right. Been sitting for months because I haven't had the time. In hindsight I would have gone with the electric version. These high compression nitro engines are notoriously difficult to tune compared to the airplane ones.

Got a couple of helicopters too. I haven't had them out in a while though. They're the only RC aircraft I still fly since I quit the hobby.
