I wish I could see the face of the cirrus pilot without RC experience
who buys one of these things when he dorks it in on takeoff.

With a 7ft+ span, does it have a recovery chute too?

Yep, RC flying is a whole other ballgame. I made the mistake of
letting my father fly one of my RC planes back when I was in high
school. He had his PPL and thought he could fly it. I told him to
stay high and fly easy circles. Then he decided he was going to be
macho and land it. He wouldn't give me back the controls, set up the
approach, and promptly stalled it on short final and buried the nose
in the grass. He paid for a replacement kit, but I had to put in the
hours building it again... :-(

Amen

I had to unlearn thousands of hours to learn to fly R/C.
