Should we start stocking them?

Sure if you want! I like micro r/c anything so I would love them!

As much as I'd like to say yes, i think that there wouldn't much of a market for z-planes. Although stocking them might increase popularity and cause a more exciting micro-flight section.

I'd stock them. I can't find them anywhere else. Put me down for two.

Cool, will do.

May I remind you that these DO NOT WORK! From personal experience, I can say that the wing loading is too high, the plane is too heavy, the airfoil is terrible, the transmitter is glitchy....there are few redeeming aspects to this plane. If you want a small plane that actually flies, you may as well shell out for a MiniStik or GWS plane-at least they actually fly.
As a plus side, they do come with a nifty Li-Ion battery....I may put the one I dug out of mine on a FEDmodded ZZSE someday.

Hi,

It is quite some time that I'm flying this little plane.

And all in all I'm quite happy with it ... it is also a great treaner for learn how to fly a RC plane.

Yes the radio has quite short range ... I did try with using more volt instead of the 9volt pack ... but still I'm in experimental phase.

With the summer here I have to say that the motor get over heat after few minutes, and cause the little pinon to slide ... had to open the plane and make some fxing for it.

In general it fly quite well, it take off from ground with easy, but normally I prefer to save weight and use it without the landing gear.

It needs to be flown in a almost no wind situation, but with some skills could be flown also with up to 10mph wind.

P.S: The main drawback so far is that with little bit more power would have much more funny to fly.

These are the crappiest planes that you could ever buy, NO they dont ROG, NO they dont FLY WELL, NO it is not worth the money, NO the parts are not that great. NO the batts crap out very quickly, NO dont buy em because it took a whole month and a half to get to me (warrenty is for a month from purchase date), No its a waste of money, NO it won't fly in a gym and you need alot of room(football field) No you will not have fun, unless you modify it. No its not safe for children, NO the landing gear breaks on installation,
JUST DONT EVEN BOTHER BUYING THIS PIECE OF JUNK. ATOMIC TOYS ARE RIPPING YOU OFF!!!!!!!!!!

I sense a bit of hate towards these projects

I'll definitely keep it in mind next time I see one of these for sale.

i love these projects, its just this plane is the biggest pile of crap to ever come out of America. Canadian here. N E ways r/c everything else is great, but atomic toys sent me a lemon, so it sucks boith ways
