Default Avant Aurora's Being Boxed (not april fools joke)

Well while browsing the net looks like some of your guy's dreams arn't far off. A cool little video. Looks like the quality of this heli is going to be awesome. I wish I had a job and I was 18. ENjoy.

Now that's a cool video. It should be posted on all the rc heli forums. It really shows all the time and effort being put into this heli.

After watching this, the wait doesn't seem that bad.

I'm begining to think the Aurora will never come out. Damn shame too, as soon as I complete my Vibe50 I'll be lookin for a 90. I was hoping for the Aurora to be out by then, but the rate that augusto is going I think I'll pass and go with something else.

Why are so many guys waiting on the Aurora when there are already awesome 90's now?

Because the aurora is sex . That and we know it's going to be 100% right out of the box. Not necessary upgrades or changes to make to the kit. Just an awesome looking, awesome flying heli right out of the box

Plus it gives me time to save for the huge investment of a 90

It will save you a lot, because you can wait forever... :-)

You'll even get interest on your money if you invest it!

I know, I know, Min Air makes some really kick a$$ helis, I just want something new and that aurora looks beautiful! But your right, there are already awsome 90s available right now. To be honest, I'll probable get a Raptor 90 3D, that thing will fly past my capabilities thats for sure!

...and it's cheaper, and you know there's actually parts support. I'm not just talking about MA either. Take a look at XFC videos and watch the footage of all the helicopters. As far as flying abilities, I just don't see the point of waiting on an Aurora.

SO, don't! I still would like to have an Aurora. It is each individuals choice.

Seriously, is the Aurora suppose to be released this month? (don't laugh) Anyone have inside word?

Everything seems VERY quiet, even on the Aurora site!

I can't believe that video from last October! Seems like they were ready to box and ship 6 months ago!?!?!?!

They better get on the ball before Align gets the 700 out,, if I had to guess I would say that straight off ,, Avant would lose 50% of there initial says due to the 700,,
