30cc
I've been keeping a close eye on Aeroplus ever sense I purchased their 100cc Corvus. The Quality of my Corvus was extremely high and in my opinion better than a lot of the "Big Name" manufacturers out there. This past June I lost the Corvus to an overheated engine in a hover and really missed flying it. I had seen the new Aeroplus 111" Extra 330LT online and was excited to pick one up, unfortunately Mile High R/C (the sole U.S. Importer) was out of stock until yesterday! Luckily for me, Mile High R/C is located about 20 minutes from home so I headed over last night to pick up the beauty from Mike personally.
I did not get any pictures of the packaging but I can say these things are well packed! All of the hardware is packaged in individual bags and sorted by location ie; Wings, Landing Gear ETC. There is a canister tunnel already installed as well as provision to mount tuned pipes sans a tunnel past the wing tube.
Here are a few pictures to show exactly what you get when you receive one of these incredible airplanes
The fuse is well built and very scale looking, it is much more round than any of the Pilot R/C, Extreme Flight, Aeroworks type of airplanes. The canopy is one piece and comes out of the box as you see it above, the plastic is a little thicker than most. A canopy this large needs to be taken care of when out at the field, I'll definitely be ordering a plane cover to help keep it out of the sun.
The internal design is well thought out and LIGHT! There are 6 carbon fiber rods built into the longerons that will ensure a strong, twist free fuselage. The pull-pull cables have also been pre-built and installed, a nice time savor.
The firewall as already been installed and reinforced with aluminum angle brackets that are installed with glue and 6-32 bolts/nuts. That will be plenty strong to hold the DA 120 for hundreds of flights I'm sure!
The wings are equally impressive, they feel very light and strong. I tried to twist them and saw zero give, they also have full length carbon spars to keep up with the XA type of flying nowadays. These wings share the exact same build design as the 100cc Corvus and I can attest to their strength, they held up to countless full throttle knife edge circles, hard 90* pushes, full throttle washers, and anything else I could throw at it!
Last but not least HOLY AILERON BATMAN!!!!!!!!!! These wings are stock, no special ordering here! There are provisions for a third aileron servo if need be, but I'll be using the new JR NX 8921 http://www.jramericas.com/234699/JRPSNX8921/
So two should do it!
I'm about to head out on Vacation for a week and will be doing a lot of travel for work but I hope to update this thread as time permits so stay tuned for some more pictures and info, this airplane will be getting the latest JR equipment as well as a few new tricks I've been wanting to play with ;-)
