I have something nearly identical an RC X-Twin. Instead of a rudder it has two engines that alternate power to change direction. It only costs about £18 down here in South Africa (R200). Couldn't find the official website but these people have images. http://www.urbanjunkie.co.uk/product.php/418/0/
the RC X-Twin you speak of rubbish. the Avion is smaller, more durable, actually flies well indoors, has 20 minute runtimes, and can be controlled much better (fully proportional rudder and throttle). i just bought one of these at my local hobby shop last week and haven't been able to put it down since!
As you say the RX-Twin is rubbish, my right engine broke.
I have to say it was the most fun 6 weeks ever. I got about 20 minutes fly time and it was really manouvarable. Obviously not that durable as far as milage is concerened.
