The Hobbyking Bonsai EPP wing is a lot of fun for the money. Some of our club members use them for full contact combat, which is a great way to sharpen up your reflexes and flying skill.
Vertical takeoffs are good for a laugh, as you can never be sure if the launch is going to be a success.
This Bonsai is launched with a Zippy 800mAh, 2S, 20C LiPo first, and then with a Zippy Compact 500mAh, 3S, 25C LiPo to show the difference another 4 volts can make!

So why does the pilot idle the motor before going to full throttle?
The ESC was taken from a crashed park flyer, and it has been set for soft start. With no manual, we don't know how to change the settings.
