That is one nice looking model Eric and man that motor sure don't hold it back none ;-) i'm always pleased to see one of your videos up for me to watch as i know it's going to be a good review of a sweet plane if not a great flight video or even better we get both like in this video = thumbs up.

[joehandsome99]

@startazz I have over 30 hours invested in this plane from the time the box opened to the time the video review went live on YouTube. That's about average for an ARF kit for me and I was very happy with the flight. I hope to make another video of me just doing some chaos with it this weekend. As always, I appreciate you watching and the great comment Ian.

Hi Eric, as usual awesome review. Very concise evaluation, chock full of information, and fantastic flying made this video exciting and enjoyable to watch. Thanks for sharing and continued success friend. Have a great day and as always, happy flying bud!

[joehandsome99]

@georgesjunglerc As usual you continue to exceed in the comments area. Thank you kindly for watching and the great comment. I really do appreciate it.

another thumbs up to you Eric, great review as always!

i would like to see more 3D flying with this plane, though.

Any chance you go back to reviewing those new little jewels from Parkzone and Eflite (Carbon Z Scimitar, etc)??

Eric, you're THA BEST!!

[joehandsome99]

@Fra42below Thanks for watching. I will try flying the Razor again this weekend and maybe try to squeeze in another video.

[Rcflyyer1]

Your videos have been so helpful to me! You are da man!

[rcflyer40plus1]

Very nice. How would you compare to Eflite Carbon Z Yak?

[flyingchimp99]

cmon man......GLOW POWER!!!

[flyingchimp99]

she looks so weird

[hamsterwing]

@joehandsome99 Hey can you do a full review on the parkzone corsair or super cub lp or mini super cub.

[stevetinyhallman]

That is a great plane. Great video Eric.

[poppopscarvinshop]

That's a Sweet Little Aircraft!

Thanks!

[ZamaSoldier]

looks like this plane flies really smooth

[RCFLIGHTHELP]

I wouldn't call this a 3D airplane as most sport airplanes can do all those maneuvers in the video.

Their are much better options better than this flying terd.

[TinkerManRC]

Great review she looks great..Thumbs Up from tim
