the thing!

PLEASE READ! this is sooo fun you won't wanna fly anything else once you get the hang of it. it doesn't handle like a normal plane. after a few tries you will get it. I recommand using small inputs of direction for a long time, instead of big rough inputs briefly, untill you learn. after you master it, you can do crazy stuff! even if you spin out of control, in this thing.. you're not really out of control. in what would have been an endless spin waiting for a crash, in the thing y you can stop every spin, and get the thing back in control, gather the speed and continue your flight. remember, although it will seem it flies like a mormal plane at takeoff, it's not. practice makes perfect and you will love it!!
