New Product
Avios C-130 Hercules with parachute drop

Superb re-creation of the C-130 with scale retractable landing gear and synchronised doors, flaps, operational cargo bay door and high intensity lights all round. Action from my first two flights after showing the kit itself before assembly.

Will get back to you on that.

Exploring the slow flight characteristics of this model after a lot of feedback suggesting it 'flies like a rocket'. Just proves how wrong folks can be!

Fat Albert Scheme was $355, I believe the grey one is slightly cheaper around $319.

It is not yet available, I was lucky enough to get drawn for the second chance drawing. Availability should be early 2019.

Some aerobatics on this latest flight ending with some tight low level flying and a short landing. Awesome aircraft.
