CONTEST - Enter to Win the Avios RCGroups Extra 330LX !!
We have another great contest for you. This time you have a chance to win the RCGroups based 330LX from Hobbyking!
The Avios RCGroups Extra 330LX Might Be Yours!!
I was talking to the fine folks at Hobbyking and that led to a discussion about having a contest. After a few ideas, we decided the natural choice would be the Avios 330LX. I worked on the RCGroups 330LX with Hobbyking and everyone was excited when the RC version became a reality. The trim scheme is based on the scale version of this plane that is flown by Jim Bourke at competitions all over the country. Not only does it look great but it flies great as well. Be sure to watch our review video (below) and you can even watch the full-scale version in action as well!
The Full Scale Version
The former owner of RCGroups.com recently flew into to Nashville on his way to an event. Jason Cole and I headed to the airport to say "Hey!" and get some photos. I also have a video interview with JB and he tells us about the full-scale version of the Avios 330LX:

The Scheme
Mirco Pecorari of Aircraft Studio Design created this awesome trim scheme. The idea was to create a scheme that reminded us of the old scheme but looked more intense. The full-scale version always receives compliments and when Jason Cole reviewed the first RC version in the states we got tons of compliments on it as well.

EC3 Connectors
EC3 connectors much cheaper than EFlite's and I like them better.
