Features:
- Suitable for children over 14 years old
- The Mad Hornet is our most beautiful, complex aircraft model to date
- The Mad Hornet's spinning propeller and moving tail rudder and wing flaps working in tandem are plenty cool, but the sequential action of having the model aircraft taxi after ground checks are complete is unique in our collection
