    Something new from Horizon. It not only has flight stabilization, but they have added a GPS so it can return to where it took off (RTH) and land itself. You can also program it to stay within a certain area so it can't fly away. I suppose it has its merits, but I sure wouldn't want one. Still an interesting development.

    That's a nice looking airplane. I guess one would be able to turn off the learner features when one got comfortable piloting.
