One of the nicest landings I've seen in a long time. Another good Avios product.

[@AntoniusBlack01]

This video made me so happy I hit the prepurchase button!

[@MWall711]

Always enjoy your videos and admire your ability to fly so smoothly in the wind. That wind sock is always dancing!

[@jollyroger2226]

Very nice demo flight. It's a winner!

[@pietroseven8228]

hmm, this was the demonstration! Landing against the wind, beauty!

[@EssentialRC]

My 2nd flight was a lot better than this. Check it out here kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5_MpY13Zc6EnLs

[@jessdyba]

Mine's on order!

[@armandjose4777]

Nice, really can handle the high winds! PAF MABUHAY!

[@DadsRCHangar]

What a maiden Dom, she looked very stable, that sound was pretty Orsum. Butter landing with all that wind about as well. Great flight 👍🏻

[@EssentialRC]

Thanks 👍

[@IceMan2035]

Handles the wind well. Nice sounding bird and nice size. The only complaint is no gear doors but for the money thats a good buy. Great video Dom

[@kostasganosis8019]

What can I say about this fantastic airplane and the very addicted sound... I saw this video 5 times in a row

[@EssentialRC]

Next vid even better!

[@JakeBullit123]

Needs the RAF scheme like we see in The Loop. Flies nicely though, great landing.

[@stuartwarnerc]

If the RAF ever flew super Tucanos, it would have been my first choice believe me 😉

[@JakeBullit123]

@@stuartwarnerc Ah ,thanks.I`m getting my Tucanos mixed up.Keep up the great work.

Great demo, greased that landing

Insane plane and perfect piloting 🎉 Well done Dom 😊

[@FlankerTanker]

Mine is already on Back order - do you have any information as to when it will be available here in the UK ? it sounds Awesome !!

[@EssentialRC]

Late July according to the product page I think.

[@M4rkmcc21]

Dom what are them crease lines above the wings on both side of the Fuselage? Is it wear marks from heavy landings or mold lines? I can't tell. Thanks.

[@EssentialRC]

Scale detail moulded into the fuselage on both sides.

[@user-dg3tu2zh6i]

Great looking plane. The ModelAv8r channel showed both the fuselage and the wings needing to be epoxied together. I think you said the major parts were all bolted together. Wonder what the difference is.

[@EssentialRC]

I glued the 2 plastic inserts (wing attachment straps) into the wings but didn't glue the actual wing halves together. Achieves the same thing. I didn't have a manual when I assembled mine.

[@M4rkmcc21]

I HK this and they recommend glueing the wings together for piece of mind. I'd say don't glue them, fly it, if you love it then glue them together. I'd imagine glueing them tougher makes it a hard plane to sell on due to its permanent wingspan and posting etc

[@user-dg3tu2zh6i]

@@EssentialRC Thanks. The other video showed the fuselage was in two pieces and had to be epoxied together. Maybe they had a pre-production one, or something else.

[@stuartwarnerc]

@@user-dg3tu2zh6i fuselage is two part, needs glueing, use contact foam glue.

[@EngineNoise305]

Were the wings quick connect on this? Or did you have the run the wires ?

[@EssentialRC]

One connector block from each wing half needs to be pulled into the fuselage and pushes into a connector in the fuselage. The wing is secured to the fuselage with 4 bolts.

I enjoy building RC foam and plastic model kits. Modern PNP or BNF models are too easy to put together. There is no challenge.. Nowdays kit versions are pretty much non exist. I wish some company would bring back kits like GWS used to make or something like that. 🤔

[@certy_huh]

Minimum rc makes fun foam/wood kits

[@theoztreecrasher2647]

@@certy_huh Apart from that, just get your Grandpappy's plane, adze and spokeshave out and craft your own from scratch! I can't stand these lazy folks who want to use "Kits!" No pride in craftsmanship these days! 😱🙄😈

[@richardmeekums6321]

Get a balsa kit and build a proper plane

[@certy_huh]

@theoztreecrasher2647 sometimes getting the lazercut kits can be easier and more right to the point than trying to get specific wood and making a airplane that may not turn out how you want it too. While I do appreciate people who make their own planes, it's just easier to get a pre cut kit.

[@stephenrout9025]

how many mins did you get from your li-po

[@EssentialRC]

Think I flew for 5 to 6 minutes but didn't look at pack voltage after. Long enough for an intense aerobatic flight that I did in the next video.

[@florentinocamposjr1540]

Is that a Philippine Flag atop the rudder?

[@EssentialRC]

Yes

[@stonkeng]

Hi, I tried to pre-order today and the lipo deal has finished.

[@EssentialRC]

Oh, that's unfortunate 😕

[@FlankerTanker]

I messaged Hobby King and they told me that the Lipo deal was never available in the UK - you needed to order from USA or Global and the shipping from those locations make it a NO GO -

[@mach9908]

Make sure you select the correct deal in the drop-down box on the order page. I believe for the UK it should be GB.

[@mach9908]

@@FlankerTanker Select GB deal in the drop-down box

[@stuartwarnerc]

@@FlankerTanker hi, sorry but this is not correct, this offer is available in all warehouses. Please just make sure you are clicking on the deal for the WH that is closest to you.

[@marianomari4130]

Spare props are back order and no date available. Doubt very much they’ll sell you a single blade…

[@EssentialRC]

True. Spares show them as packs of 6.
