I now have an Avro

[tapemonkey]

This forum is a bit short of posts. Is this heli that good that no one has any issues with it? Hope so, 'cos I've just bought one second hand. Looks nice a clean. I've ordered my receiver today and should arrive tomorrow. If the weather is ok (it's not looking good), I may even be able to get out on Wednesday and have my maiden flight. Can't wait to get it in the air... :)

Not had a fly yet. If the weather is ok I am going to try and get a fly on Wednesday.

Had my first flights this afternoon. Think I am going to like flying this heli. Felt very locked in flight and loads of power. I am going to change the setup to the sport/3D and try that out.

Sorry Andy, all the pics i took were rubbish!!!! Here is about the best one, but its not even flying.

I guess it is because of the high price tag and the lack of advertising compared to some of the other helis out now. But so far the Avro is the most impressively designed machine I have seen yet. It's like the Rolls Royce of pod and boom .90 helis. Everything is so meticulously engineered it is a work of art. I hope it flies as good as it looks :)

I like the look of the Avro but with other more competitively priced 90's out there I think alot of mfrs are going to struggle against a certain mfr .... Hope it flies as nice as it looks for ya :)
