I have a Power-Z 200 and it is great fun. It's a bit like a glider with an electric motor (powered by a Ni-MH battery), easy to fly*, cheap to buy, fairly robust but cheap to crash.
*An added bonus is it assumes level (unpowered) flight when it goes out of range or the battery goes flat which gives you a reasonable chance of recovering it intact if the worst happens.

If you get in the [censored] with this thing you're supposed to let go of the controls and it will level out and glide to the ground safely. Good in theory but in practice I always end up trying to 'fly it out' and end up hammering it into the ground. Oh, and flying it in moderate winds is especially 'interesting' - it's best flown in a gentle breeze at most.
