Can this plane take off on the ground? Can it do a Barrel Roll?

Nope. Strictly hand launch (no landing gear so the propeller would rip itself right off), ive been able to dead start it into the wind with the as3x version, and it lifts right off my palm. This version is strictly 3 channel, which in this case means throttle, elevator, and rudder. It will do a barrel roll, but not an aileron roll. Its a great plane to learn with! Binds right up to spekrum 2.4ghz transmitters, or you can buy it RTF. I put about 11g of ballast right at the nose to fix the tail heavy problem. It sounds like a lot, but it needs it. Its easily my favorite plane to date, and ive been flying 3d, large scale, and and helis for a few years now.im working on building one with flaperons and no as3x :0 Nope.

There's no undercarriage, so I don't recommend taking off from the ground. It's three channels, so a barrel roll is also not really possible.

This plane does not fly. It's like a remote control car. Wish it would have more plane features but it does not.

The only one I found is the Jet 708119... Moves nice but is on wheels permanently, no solid ground...

No. It spins. I think that is by design so you don't disrupt the rifling of the barrel.

It has a failsafe mode that will fly it to it's home location and land if failsafe is activated or the signal is lost from the controller. It can also hold it's position, but does not exactly have full autopilot capabilities.

Yes. And it flies just as easily as it says too. I bought one and sold it on to a friend who ALWAYS crashes. First time I showed him and then he took over, took off, flew it around and landed. Then he told me "That's the first time I have taken off, flew and landed without crashing"

It could stand freely if you used sand bags or water barrels to tie it down. If you don't tie it down it will most definitely fly away.

Granny oh yes! She or he should have no problem with flying this plane Just remember that any Radio Controlled plane is not a toy and Safety first should be followed. In fact I am sure that even you could fly it. Just start learning over grass and windless days.Mig69

I have not taken it on a plane. However it folds up pretty small and is reasonably light-weight.

It just rolls on the base. No handles just have to roll the barrel. The lid broke on mine after about a month though and now the contents spill out if you try to roll it.

Yes this air rifle is a break open barrel type.you cock the barrel once each time to fire each shot.

Yes, with a little practice anyone can fly this... One nice thing about this copter is that it is so light weight, that it has very little inertia so crashes cause little to no damage. This is a great copter to learn on.

It can be flown outside but only if it's dead calm. It's so lite that it will struggle against any wind at all.

That depends of your flight skills , I've flown it inside of my house without any problem !!!!And also flown it in a park or backyard too !!!

Yeah it can fly outside, but the wind has to be zero and you will be adjusting the trim to account for unseen breezes. I honestly wouldn't by this helicopter because it will decide to take off at full throttle and crash uncontrollably because you have to cycle the power toggle up and down to break the helicopter doing its own thing. Good news is that it is durable And can handle most if the crashes

Any where you don't mind it not flying. This plane is poorly designed, very difficult to control, and hard to get off the ground! It's really not worth it for anybody, unless you plan on just using it as a toy.

I haven't tried to do this and think it might be a little difficult but where there is a will there is a way. The plane has lots of power so adding a GoPro it still should takeoff with no problem. With that said there are other planes more suited for a GoPro
