Well do any of you? I do. if so what kind do you have?

I use duct fan ones because I like them better. I have a B2 which is actually very simple, it uses the 2 motors that fly it to steer also by adjusting their speeds. I have a A7 cheap duct fan but the battery is kinda screwyyy so it doesn't Fly well http://www.geekalerts.com/u/a7-tornado-rc.jpg

I also just ordered a http://www.grandhobby.com/recorcvubaai.html

BTW: is this the right section for this topic?

I make combat planes with friends.

We take a triangular piece of styrofoam, hot glue, a cheap motor and propeller, a couple of micro servos, an rc kit, then make them fly and slam into each other to make your opponent fall and crash. Duct tape is allowed for quick on-site repairs.

It's AWESOME. And pretty cheap, just the initial costs.

yeah, but if, you did have a powerful motor and a crappy plastic AEG it would work
