So, about a year and a half ago, Flite Test reviewed the F-27 Evolution:
If you'll notice, Josh, Alex, and Stefan were INCREDIBLY nice to me and gifted me one of these bad boys.
It arrived, and I had full intention of getting it up and flying the heck out of it, but I kept crashing my Versa Wings and was really nervous about trying to get this thing up in the air and fly it, especially after I'd lost control of my Nano Goblin at the field and was really shaken by nearly hitting someone in the pits.
So, it sat in my bedroom, at the foot of my bed, for nearly a year, until I got up the courage to get out and fly it this past weekend.
I took it out to the field, had someone hand launch it for me, and the next thing I know, I'm SCREAMING around the field with this sucker, making runs from right to left. I don't know why I was so nervous about flying this thing; it flies SO well! Yes, it flies like a Versa Wing, but it corners incredibly well at speeds, and is incredibly stable in flight, especially at low and high speeds. I was doing rolls with it like it was nothing (although, I was flying it on low rates the first two times, especially at higher speeds).
If you haven't tried one, I can highly recommend it.
