    EVO II Batteries

This issue of not being able to take-off from your hand would be a major ding against getting the Evo. Like fly186 I have a 16' runabout boat, so hand launch is the only way to go here. I also...

    All it takes is one or two bad actors and the big government hammer will come down on ALL RC flyers
