Night Vapor Review

   Recently the air has been dead still all day. I got the courage to break out my Parkzone Night Vapor  and took it for a spin. The Night Vapor is a fun and relaxing airplane, it easily cruises at slow speeds but can still speed up quite a bit. The Vapor also has built in lights which allow for flying in complete darkness.  The Night Vapor is great for just getting used to controls and fixes can be easily made.
    The night vapor is almost all carbon rod and P.E.T. plastic and hardly anything else. Figuring out just where to pick the thing up from can be a mild challenge. One thing I found about the Night Vapor is never slide the battery all the way back, you might end up with a faulty battery connection. Parkzone said that the Vapor is perfect for flying in a small living room, I found this is not the case. Flying in spaces as small as a living room is not fun at all as your only  flight path is a tight circle and there are many hazardous obstacles.      
  The Night Vapor may be a great slow flying airplane but I much rather fly in a larger venue, somewhere that allows for more aerobatic maneuvers.  Somewhere such as a gym or even a class room is the perfect size. Overall this is a fun flying airplane and I would rate it at four stars.
