I got some of those Airhogs R/C airplanes, but keep crashing them or losing them...
No way I would spend over 50 buck on one, knowing my dumbass.

Never flew a real RC airplane, but my neighbor is *REALLY* into that shit. He flies planes and helicopters. Helicopters are much harder to fly he says. He also has a real glider that he flies 3-4 times a week...
I played with his flight simulator a bunch of times, and planes don't seem that hard... Helicopters, however, a pain in the ass. I could only fly to 10 seconds tops. lol
