AVIOS EXTRA 330 LX VERSION 2 | PART 3: 5 CELL POWER UP: ESSENTIAL RC FLIGHT TEST

AVIOS EXTRA 330 LX VERSION 2 | PART 3: 5 CELL POWER UP: ESSENTIAL RC FLIGHT TEST AVAILABLE HERE: http://bit.ly/aviosExtra330LXv2 The Avios Extra 330 LX version 2 is the successor to the first release we saw in early 2018. It is very easy to assemble this model. No glue required. All hardware is provided. You'll just need a small cross head screw driver to put it together. I share small number of tips during assembly in the unboxing/assembly video.

Not recommended to use the stock ESC on 5 cells but my thinking was my use of full throttle would be limited so why not try it. Certainly makes it more punchy for hovering. On landing I checked the ESC to the touch and it was barely warm. I have the 5S pack right to the front. CG was too far forward for good solid hovering but it wasn't bad. Will move it back an inch for next time out ! I used a 5S3000 flight battery and put it as far forward as it would go. This left the balance point just in front of the quick release buttons underneath the wings. I setup my transmitter with 3 position rates with 100% being at the maximum BIG throws with the remaining positions at 66% and 33% of maximum throw. I used 30% expo on all rates.
