    Outro/Outtakes: 10:21
    The incredible Avios C-130 is back with two new hi-viz, vibrant, and lighter in weight color schemes, plus a host of other improvements. The improvements on the V2 are mainly aimed at reducing weight to improve the slow-flight handling characteristics. Like the original version, the C-130 V2 is completed to the highest level of scale detail, has a 1600mm wingspan, and measures over a meter in length.

    Beloved worldwide, this versatile American four-engine turboprop aircraft has been used in many guises over its long period in service. Originally it was designed as a troop, and cargo transport aircraft, but very quickly found uses in a variety of other roles.
    The Avios C-130 V2 is available in two brand new color schemes, the classic US Coast Guard scheme of hi-viz orange and white with scale decals, or a typical civilian cargo plane scheme in red, white, and blue. Both stand out really well in all skies, and both schemes are lighter in weight than previous versions. Features include pre-installed motors, ESCs, servos, retract landing gear with door sequencer, working cargo door, cabin light, nav lights, etc. The V2 also includes an improved rudder pushrod system with a rear-mounted servo which is lighter, and more direct. The wings are removable for transport and they include a quick-connect/disconnect plug and socket for servos, lights, and power. Assembly is fast and straightforward, it simply screws together, no gluing is required.
    Avios presents the only true scale representation of the mighty C-130 turboprop aircraft, and in its V2 form, they are even better to fly. As the full-size model has been a familiar sight around the world for many years, these striking Avios scale models are also destined to become a familiar sight at model flying fields all over the world. Enjoy the look, the sound, and all the fantastic scale features of the Avios C-130 V2 4 engine turboprop.
    Improvements of the Avios C-130 V2:
    • Two brand new hi-viz, vibrant and lightweight color schemes
    • Improved direct pushrod rudder linkage with rear-mounted rudder servo
    • Flap geometry has been improved to achieve more movement
    • Reduced wiring and no surplus deadweight in airframe
    • A reduction in overall weight giving much improved slow-speed handling characteristics
    Features:
    • A beautiful scale model of the classic Lockheed C-130 turboprop
    • Working flaps, retractable landing gear with door sequencer, nav lights, working cargo door
    • Factory-installed motors, ESCs, servos, wiring, and quick connect/disconnect wing electrical connectors
    • Scale 4 bladed propellers
    • Separate 5V-3A BEC unit
    • Airframe beautifully molded in tough EPO foam
    • Fast, and easy to assemble, no glue required

    THE way the ec1500 SHOULD HAVE been done!
    Only 1 thing urps me: WHY not be able to use 6s? Something, anything this big, with quad motors, SHOULD be able to handle 6s easily! 🤯 (I sure do hope its electrics aren't like the ec1500 as in 2 esc's (4 esc's here).

    @davidweaver4702 2 года назад +2

    That looks a really nice aircraft. 👌 I have just been online to try and buy one, and it's marked at £316, which is OK. But then we have to add around another £300 for shipping from Global warehouse to get it to the UK. Suddenly not as good a deal. Is there any way you can make this more affordable for your average flyer ? 🙏

      Yes, if we could open up shipping from EU WH to UK customers then it would be. That's not possible at the moment but its being worked on at the very top to make this an option once more.

    Stewart... I have bought so many planes from Hobbyking in the UK... But the postage cost from Global warehouse is crazy.... I can't belive u are selling a single to the UK market at present.... Please can u update us on what is going on if anything to support the many many loyal HK model buyers here in the UK. We deserve better.....

      @davidweaver4702 2 года назад +1

      I have just tried to get one in England, and at £316 for the model, then add £300 for shipping, then when it gets here, they will add VAT at 20% which is roughly another £124. So total is £740 😲 Faaaar too much 😭
