I took this out on the first day, was OK for about 3 minutes (although even though it states it can deal with wind below 5mph - it really struggles with it.) Needed to bring it down to land so began easing off the throttle, as soon as it got closer to the ground a light breeze blew and caused it to pitch down. In that situation its impossible to pitch up, you can't throttle up because it (as I did) just faceplants it into the ground. As a result I now have a piece of crap with no wings.

Stay away from this plane, i bought one believing it would be a great beginner plane as stated in the ads. It turned out that this plane is difficult to fly and under powered. It seems ACT means Always Crash Technology. Crashed it several times, loosing parts each time ... now it's just a piece of junk in my room.

Can someone look inside the fuselage of their commander 2 and tell me where the red wire that comes from the motor, solders to the circuit board? Mine has come lose (probably a crummy solder job) and I'm not sure where it's supposed to go. I think I know but not sure. A close up digital photo would be even better. Thanks in advance

It's not an easy bird. I'm a student pilot flying a Piper Warrior and compared to this?? Ugh. I can't believe that I need to use the throttle to control altitude. At one point, the wing moved back and the prop chipped a tiny piece off of it.

you really have to consider it a "powered glider." Launch her head-on into the wind and land her the same way. Don't fly in over 7-8mph winds and it's a great plane to fly. The force of a rapid nose first crash will bend the prop towards the impact and chip/chunk out the back of the wing. The good part is that you don't have to replace a nose-cone and propeller like a pull-prop. Just a piece of packing tape around the wing and back up ya go! :)

I purchased my Firebird Comander 2 yesterday and A.C.T. caused it to crash in a tree, behind barbwire on private property.

i just got my commander 2 out from the cupboard and the elastic bands which hold the wings on have broken :( and i dont have no elastic bands in the house :(

When you store your commander, remove all the rubber bands, even if it's just bieng stored for short periods. it's fairly easy to get replacements from the store, just make sure they are about the same size, and cris crossing a band across the top of the wing will cause the wing to tear in half in certain crashes, I always leave that one off.
