Awesome. Yeah, they've gone on Ebay for as much as $99 + shipping. I saw the vid. of the Mrs Budweiser one a few yrs ago, and wanted to get it, but I've always put it off. If I ever break into flying, this would be the first vehicle I get as well. :)

Looks like it takes a 380-size motor in it.
Hmmmmmm, pick up a Reedy mini-modified motor and throw'er in there. :cool:
