I've been considering buying one of these models for some time to have available to "chuck into the car just in case".

What would you guys recommend as being worthwhile for a "dyed in the wool" i.c. man?

One thing I did tonight, which you can't do with a power model , was to get a flight in with my Beaver between putting the spuds on the to cook and mashing them (O.K. I live on a farm and only have a two minute walk to my flying site). I could take it outside, fly for about 8 mins, land, disconnect the battery, put the model in the corner (no cleaning required!) and go back to cooking my meal (and with clean hands to boot!) Neat eh!

Kiwi, what you report is the sort of time I would like to have, BUT...

...it doesn't let me know what model to got for - I asked for recommendations about the sort of model to go for so that I could have something which would always be ready and available to "chuck into the car just in case".
