It's not as common, but is available. Reloading does the trick.
I've not gotten into that. Have to get over the electric RC planes first. Haven't gotten one of them
either, but I'm spending a lot of time looking. I like this one:

But it's pretty big. I'd like to be able to fly it at the local elementary school. The playground
there's not very big.
The wingspan is fairly large (59"), but it will fly pretty slow and land probably at a fast walk to a trot. If you pull the trigger (ha!) on this, get an extra battery so you can charge one while flying the other, or you be waiting a while between flights.
Yeah, good idea. Do they make chargers that will operate from a car battery? My little helicopter
charges from a USB port on the computer, and I've got a cigarette lighter to USB adaptor (used for
Verizon cell phones), but I don't know if they make that type interface for the LiPo batteries in
the RC planes.
