It flies great! About 10oz heavier than the recommended motor/ESC setup, but it's probably WAY faster too. With battery it weighs in at 45oz, it was easy to hand launch, overall a pretty easy plane to fly. Pink is a great color for a plane so I found out, very easy to see. If I had to guess, it's in the neighborhood of 100mph on a 3s battery, I am pleased with that.
