  1. Does it use the kind of prop that can be put on backwards?   A prop on backwards will try to propel the plane backwards, and will make it instantly fall out of the sky when you hit the throttle.


  2. I have looked at a lot of reviews for this plane on a variety of websites. Here's what I found out:

    - It will not fly well even at the slightest of wind because the motor on this plane does not generate enought thrust.

    -  Many of them said the battery only lasted less than one minute.

    . I would think that from all your crashes, the LiPo battery got worn out and is not distributing power equally to both engines. Either replace the LiPo Battery or buy a new one. I would suggest to buy a new plane instead, because if you buy a new LiPo battery, it would cost as much as buying a new plane!

    I suggest a new plane by Air Hogs and Spinmaster called the "JET SCREAM". It is only $30 and it has two Ducted Jet Engines, Canard Wings, and elevators! PLUS, It looks Cool!!! For more information on this plane, Visit:
