The Eflite UMX Waco BL BNF Basic micro plane by Horizon Hobby is an incredible flying experience.The BNF micro Waco is for pilots that have their own transmitter and are intermediate to advanced flyers.

What we liked:
Small, so can fly it in parks and keep it in the back of your car to take it out on a nice day.
AS3X (Artificial Stabilization) technology—little gyros automatically stabilizes in hard winds (you can turn off this feature if you prefer)
The brushless motor has enough power to battle wind.
Sporty performance.
Can perform decent aerobatics.
Flight time: 10 minutes in high winds with Hyperion 2s 300mAh

Other thoughts:
These are fairly delicate—which is to be expected from an ultra micro plane.
Doesn’t have SAFE technology (so no autolevel or bank angle limiters). This means it is for intermediate to advanced pilots.
BNF (bindnfly) plane—it only comes with the plane and manual so that means you’ll need to get a transmitter, batteries and chargers.
