Trex 700 or Avant Aurora?

[Arwel]

Well then, Avant or Trex 700?????? What do you recomend?

[Tim Procter]

Correct me if I'm wrong but arnt you selling a 700 this weekend.

Why...my vote went for 700... Cost, Spares availibility..If you want to thrash you will bash.

A friend has an Aurorra and doesn't enjoy flying it in case he prangs it...££££££'s

If I did invest that amount the Vibe SG would be worth a look

To be truthfull I would love a true 30 size Performance 3D Nitro (theres not one on the market unfortunately) not a lardie Rappie etc but something built to perform like a scaled up a 500 but smaller than a 600N

Yes, sorry I should of explained a bit more. I have a 700 and I want to sell it and buy an Avant Aurora. Thanks busterboy

[SRH990]

Surely what you buy depends upon personal circumstances, I'd love an Aurora but would struggle to afford the initial outlay and repair costs. That's why I've got a 700

[colin n]

I use both.

The 700n flys better, is easier to work on, breaks less and is better looking.

these are just my findings, oh yes the arrora is i pig to see aswell.

the price don't come into it but time does. i can slam a 700 together and it works, the arroura like MA stuff seems to need a bit more care and faffing to get just right.

Don't do it arwel, cost and avalibility of spares is the main prob, saw the new canopy for the aurora, 200 quid cough cough.
700 for the price can't be bettered i am sure of it, yes maybe doesn't have the same wow factor as the aurora but at least you can afford to fix it when it goes wrong.
And i am sure, that if most pilots were honest, there is hardly any performance diff, if any at all.

£200 for the canopy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

£200 for a Dave Yost painted canopy... that's no ordinary canopy, I've seen it up close! Absolutely stunning!

I agree rob, does look stunning, but would you honestly fly a 3D routeen with it fitted?

[robgt]

Yeah, I'd do it!!
Someone else would have to buy it though

Cheers,
Rob
