Anyone into RC flight at all?

Hey everyone! I'm a small RC flyer, with only electric planes (no gas for me).

My hangar is as follows:

Hobbyzone Super Cub LP (Heavily modded and now retired, after almost 50 flights and 13 hours of air time)

Parkzone Extra 300 (Retired and soon to be sold for parts)

Parkzone Fw-190-A (Soon to be sold, nearly brand-new)

Parkzone Radian Pro (A beautiful powerglider)

Parkzone Ultra Micro Mosquito (Cute little twin engine fighter)

Parkzone Ultra Micro T-28 Trojan (Zips around like none other)

2 small helis, unknown title, similar to a Blade mCX2, but newer

And soon, a Parkzone Archer (A beautiful scale representation of a plane that I fly in real life)

I fly with a DX6i, with my old DX5e as a faithful backup.

Anyone else out there fly RC? Fun crashes/stories?

I have a Flyzone Sensei- it has working bombay door which makes really fun dive bombing

Parkzone Archer- Once when I was flying it, the wings ripped off the bottom mid-flight. It came to a dead stop in mid-air and fell straight to the ground. Only damage was the missing screws from the wing.

Parkzone Ultra Micro Corsair, and Mustang,

Flyzone Micro Piper Cub

A small quadcopter my dad brought me back as a souvenir from a buisness trip last summer.

A Blade Tandem Rescue helicopter.

You already have the Archer? How does the Archer handle, compared to the Sensei? I would assume much slower and less maneuverable.

It is quite lightweight. The engine (I think) is slightly more powerful than the Sensei. Its really fast and sensitive. Sometimes when taking off I almost smash right back into the ground. I can do a lot of aerobatic stuff with it. The Sensei is quite large and stable being a hi-wing plane. Also, for the Sensei, I practically need to take tools and such with me when I fly to put the wing on. As with the Archer, I can easily just carry the transmitter and the plane out to my backyard to fly (I have a huge backyard, I even mowed a runway and have a windsock and everything). Overall, its a good big-medium sized plane. Only if you take off from grass with it, there isn't much clearance in between the prop and the ground.
