Pros & Cons
Pros
I flew this over the weekend on and around the parking lots next to my old law office. It is super fast, which can be a good thing if you've got a large area in which to run it. Once you get the hang of it though it's fun and will keep you entertained... Read More
The only downside is that it needs to run completely; 100% out of battery to recharge. Otherwise charging and syncing were without problems. A complete charge takes about fifty minutes, using the delicate usb cable.
Cons
It only has 10 minutes of flight time before it has to be recharged. Not up to hobby grade standards. Seems a bit flimsy.
Highlights
Quality
Four stars for being durable, but minus one for large turning radius at my location.
I give the revell controll fire a very good rating, my 10 year old loves it and its easy to fly.
The vehicle has been stolen by dogs, flow into large cacti and has been prodded by a three year old.
It won’t fly for more than twenty minutes before you need to re-charge it.
Price
I deduct one star, 4 instead of 5, because i do not know what the ultimate price of this product will be.
Amazon at this writing does not have a price for it.
I don't know that i would pick it over something like the hobby zone rt champ at $89.
Without the price i cannot say it is a good value.
Shipping
It is super fast, which can be a good thing if you've got a large area in which to run it.
Packaging/appearance
This is a near paper weight styrofoam product with two spare propellers in the package and presented to look so inviting.
The box includes 2 extra propellers and i thought that was great.
Mine actually was black with orange flame decals on it, so it's a bit different than what is pictured here.
Competitiveness
I would compare this vehicle to the rather simple (and rather cheap) air hogs rc toys.
If it charged for 50 minutes and then flew for 50 minutes, i think that'd be much better.

Little hard to fly if there is any wind

The fire shot does fly flat and is surprisingly resistant to wind surges but im thinking that the slow turn might be due to fighting the winds

I have a 100x100 area which gives about five seconds of flight in a straight line before needing to turn
