Comments

Bees are great fun, and I cant wait to do aerial photography!
My bee can fly for about 10~15 mins, and still with a good rate of climb even after 10 mins!
I recommend a gearbox, as direct drive is really sluggish.

My Bee is 5 years old now, she's dirty,
completely cracked on every part, but will still fly as new and won't come down.
This Bee is still the best modelplane in my collection
