Cool vid . I have a Warthog by GWS myself , and it takes a paved runway to take off:cry: . Newer more powerful motors are available for it now. Brushless motors are a must for any electric plane or heli to get performance. The electric Warthog's have the same lazy flying characteristics as the real planes .

They're cute, in a ugly, red-headed-step-child kinda way.

...But it's as close to a flying tank as you can get! Sure, it's ugly, but have you seen the gun on that thing? Every time I see a vid of it firing, I picture some little guy in the nose turning a hand crank... :D
