about babyshark:

This micro speed plane is insanely FAST on the 3S setup PLEASE follow the recommended control set ups including EXPO, otherwise it will be challenging to fly as it is a very responsive high performance design that can be easy and fun to fly if set up properly.

The Babyshark is a high performance design that is fast, responsive, and aerobatic. It can retain its high speed energy in full elevator yank and bank pylon turns and will get your heart pumping and your knees shaking. PERFECT for you speed freaks! It is also Extremely maneuverable and can tear up the sky like NO OTHER Depron aircraft it’s size and weight
then slow down for sport flying. But what fun is that when you have a little pocket rocket like this in your control. Which ever way you like to fly this plane it is quite small and it can get away from you fast. So don’t blink and hold on for a performance you never thought possible from a 3mm Depron foam airplane and wow everyone at the airfield, Guaranteed!

Alternatively, if you want a fast plane but need to work your way up to it, then start with the 2S set up instead of the 3S on the same motor, ESC, and even the same 4.75x4.75 prop! And you will have your self a very manageable and still fast micro parkflyer that is great flying fun at a more manageable pace. But don’t underestimate this set up either, it can still tear up the sky, but at a less-than-insane way.
