~1/2 hour to charge, ~10 minutes flying time. The remote takes 6 AA batterys. To charge the airplane, you plug it into the remote and the charge light comes on. It is ready to fly when the charge light turns itself off. You don't need to give it much throttle for it to fly strait and level. It has plenty of power in reserve. I recommend trimming it with a little down elevator.
The airplane has no control surfaces, other than the propellors. To control it you give it power with the left stick and the right stick steers it by sending more power to one motor or the other. The airplane cannnot be flown dead stick because if the motors are not running, there is no way to control it.
The rudder and elevators can be used to trim it by hand, though. There is also a trim knob on the remote to balance the two motors.
I'm able to stand on my deck, launch it, fly it around the back yard and bring it back and catch it in my hand. It's a pretty fun toy!
