Wow! I got a Stryker 'F27 C' (made by Parkzone), which is a newer version of the F27 B (makes sense!). The C has brushless motor and lithium polymer pack for the motor, and this thing moves!!!
I got a fair bit of experience with my F27 B - but the ground got in the way a few weeks back - a good opportunity to replace it with a newer model.
I kind of knew what to expect from the B, but didn't expect what I got from the Stryker C - rocket level performance!
My new Stryker F27C goes vertical like you wouldn't believe - only problem is that it goes up so quick, it quickly becomes just a small black shape in the sky and you've got no idea which way up it is. But just cut the throttle right back and glide her down to a lower altitude.
Straight and level the F27C looks as smooth as a baby's butt, and a downwind pass puts the thing at warp speed - yeah!!!
My only moan - bumpy landings make the fins pop out, I think Parkzone could have sorted that out a bit better. Glue I guess!

One more thing - the Stryker F27 C, and B too, is worth getting for the box alone, it's the size of a football field! You know you've bought something with one of these babies!! ;-)

Ciao.
