      The ones I’m thinking of are carbon fiber bodied, weigh about 600-800g, and easily hit 100mph/160kph. Usually we recommend newbies fly a few dozen hours in a simulator first but seeing people post pics with cuts from propellers going up their arm was a semi regular occurrence on the subreddit.
