3.0 out of 5 stars Fun Plane but Caution on Title Claims, 2 Aug 2007
By Mr. S. De Monchaux "sdm1024" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Science Museum - Virtually Indestructible Plane (Toy)
Excellent fun plane, easy to set up and get ready to go.
Some niggles.

Lets be honest, plane is constructed from several types of polystyrene, wings are flexible (has withstood several flyings at speed into trees).

Nose end of plane less robust, snapped off after about crash landing number 20.

This part of the construction seems to be a weak point and is seemingly resistant to repair.
Plane still flies OK with nose amputation but does not look as cool

This review is from: Science Museum - Virtually Indestructible Plane (Toy)
but difficult to get the hand of flying it - especially when it's slightly windy - but it does what it says on the box !

First flight was on a beach.. crashed a huge number of times into cliffs, sand, my partner ! - and it still Flies (ideal!) - GREAT FUN FOR ALL AGES

5.0 out of 5 stars This plane really is unbreakable!! It can still be lost though! :(, 6 Jun 2006

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Science Museum - Virtually Indestructible Plane (Toy)
I got one of these planes the same time as a friend got a different type one. Since then he's had 3 more planes, all of which have broken on a crash landing!. I, however still have my original Virtually Indestructible Radio Controlled Plane which, other than losing the wheels is in perfect condition! I have also bought a second one so I can charge one battery while using the other. In summary this truly is a indestructable plane, unless it gets run over or flown over the river, over the road and on top of your Local B&Q by one of your friends![Like mine did :-( ]
