I was looking at the idea of getting back into the hobby with a small aircraft and found the idea of auto stabilization in very small models to combat wind interesting. Having looked at reviews of various models it looked like they tend to be very easy to fly with stabilization switched on and very difficult switched off. The Skynetic models have two modes of stabilization which I hoped would allow me to further develop my flying skills. The 6g mode offers very stable flight but the self leveling tendency makes for a nonstandard flying experience in my opinion. The 3d mode gives some stabilization while offering a far more authentic and challenging flying experience. Can be flown in light winds and I feel pleased with its overall performance.

The Tiger Moth looks nice and can even fly in a fairly stiff breeze. I had to dial in quite bit of down elevator to get it flying level, but it was fine after making the adjustment. It’s nice that it comes with a stand—which also holds the transmitter—but the attachment plate doesn’t work for this plane so it’s basically useless.

Very durable. Breakaway propeller works great. Although I already lost it. An included spare would be nice. Like another reviewer said, the rudder broke off at the foam hinge after a few crashes. No big deal. Just put it back on with clear tape. I used a nylon hinge since I had one. Flight controller seems to work great. Tricky to fly. 1/25 scale biplane so wind will have its way with it. Also since it's so small, it's easy to lose your bearings because it's hard to see. But if you crash, at least on grass/dirt/snow, it seems indestructible. Cockpit could do with some visual enhancing.

Very pretty. Breakaway prop works great. Although I already lost it. An included spare prop would have been nice. Flight controller is much better than competitive 400-500mm RTFs. Auto level, stabilized, manual, and loiter. Very durable. My rudder broke off at the hinge after like the fifth crash like others. No problem. Just tape it back on. I installed a nylon hinge in it, because I already had them. Main gear does need to be secured because the hole it inserts into has to be big enough to also fit onto the plane stand insert. This is like a 1/25 scale biplane, so wind throws it around. It’s also easy to lose your bearings due to small size and color scheme. Very fun and forgiving.
