This was maiden day with the Albatross, everything went very well. The wind was a little unpredictable and swirling around, but we had no problems. This plane is a powerhouse, unlimited vertical with this power setup. It has reversing esc's, twin throttles (you can tie it to the rudder for more control, but I have not done that yet). Counter rotating propellers, a big water rudder that is very powerful. LED Lights, flaps, and a massive battery bay hatch! Avios knocked it out of the park with this baby! The looks are perfect. I had someone come up to us today that actually flew these in Alaska, he was very impressed with it!! More info to come. SUBSCRIBE for more flights, on sea and land! Build video, unboxing and more! You saw it here first! Props to GBLynden for nailing the camera work, as always! Avios has designed a beautiful twin-engine Grumman Albatross flying boat. What could be better than a large monohull flying boat gracing the skies or taxing across a lake? This excellent plane is made of strong EPO foam and comes with scale plastic fittings for an extremely realistic look. It is painted in a US Navy rescue scheme of seagull gray, yellow and white for easy visibility under all conditions. The Grumman HU-16 Albatross came into service with the United States Air Force in 1949 and was primarily designed as an amphibious plane for search and rescue missions. It was extensively used for combat search and rescue in both the Korean and Vietnam wars. As an amphibian, it could land on both land and open sea and was optimized for 4-foot (1.2m) seas but could land in heavier seas. The Albatross is well powered by twin Aerostar 3536-850KV motors with scale 3-blade 10x6 propellers. The 30A reversing ESCs make it easier to navigate around the water. The addition of a water rudder makes maneuvering on water even easier. The built-in flaps provide plenty of lift and make landings and takeoffs look easy. The Albatross provides a great presence in the air that will look outstanding at any time and can easily do scale passes that all enthusiasts enjoy. Get out on the water and go soaring across the sky with the Avios Grumman Albatross.
