Avios C 130 Hercules Unboxing

[@BjarneKvilvang]

I'm sorry for not been able to make the flight review video yet. Due to my illness have I been more or less bedridden during the winter and I did also get an hard setback when my mom got cancer and I did sit by her side for 3 week until she passed away. My mother is the main reason that I do this hobby due to all the help she gave my when I started this back in 1980 as a 10 years old boy. I do now have some footage of the plane but not good enough to give it a fair review, as soon as I have the needed footage will I give my unbiased review of this plane.

Sorry to hear news like this and sorry to hear of your loss. I wish you the best. I think you mom would want you to keep em flying.

[@BjarneKvilvang]

Thank you, and you are absolutely right that my mom would like me to keep flying. I'm still flying and have just started editing videos again and is hoping to get the review of the C-130 out in the next few days.

[@FlankerTanker]

[@BjarneKvilvang]

[@umitmaden9181]

Hi Bjarne. Good video. Separetely thanks that you spent very money to show this C 130 to us. I wish good days for your mother at the paradise .

[@BjarneKvilvang]

Thank you Ümit, and thank you for the kind words.

I like where you mounded the camera in the rear, here's an idea, get those kids small Army parachutes toys stuff a few of them in the rear and have your camera filming them as they fall out lol..

[@BjarneKvilvang]

That was a good idea, might happen this one........ ;-)

[@josipvrandecic2472]

Hi Bjarne, one of the planes to remember ... I like a water labels but it's a bit tricky to set up (for me ... of course). Thanks buddy and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

[@BjarneKvilvang]

Absolutely, this is a plane to remember. Water labels isn't that hard, just use a lot of water and use the time. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family to.

Great job nice looking plane

[@BjarneKvilvang]

Thank you.......... :-D

[@gerrydunne8768]

looks good i wish i won one too

[@BjarneKvilvang]

It's a great locking model. Did not win the model, just an opportunity to by one now before the release in 2019. The price was about $300.-, but it's worth it with all hardware and a really nice finish.

[@jamesbraun2763]

I thinking of getting one , then I started seeing these crash more and more . I don't think it's the fault of the plane it's self but the radio system . R/C is not fool proof , but these are not cheap planes and where I am if anything would happen that's it , no repairs and if it's a total I'm out how much . No one has said anything about the cost of a complete system , plane and radio . I have heard some complaining about shipping cost and how it was way over the top .

[@BjarneKvilvang]

It's a great plane, the crashes are due to that this it not a beginner plane. It's a pretty hard plane to fly and it has a deadly tipstall, if you get to low speed and get in a tipstall is it almost impossible to get out of.

[@supercat380]

Too good to risk crashing in an RC accident

[@BjarneKvilvang]

There is always a risk when flying RC......... ;-)

[@supercat380]

@@BjarneKvilvang i agree, but so much effort in detail and paintwork etc and risking crashing this very pretty RC model

[@Zeisslermusic]

Sejt Bjarne.

[@BjarneKvilvang]

Tak, vidunderlig model at flyve........ ;-)
