Re: Hobbico Flyzone Micro Albatros
HI

No trim tabs, so you gotta fly it, but its not tough. Acctually flies quite well. Looks great up there. And for the price ,its cheaper than a dicast Albatros that does nothing but sit there LOL

Well, I'll probably fly it with my new DX7 transmitter so I'll have trims.

Re: Hobbico Flyzone Micro Albatros
Received my Albatros from Great Hobbies today. Very disappointed. VERY flimsy foam rudder and elevator. As a matter of fact the rudder had already broken off. Looks like it didn't like the handling that CanPost gave it. As well, it looks like it doesn't bind to my DX7 and it appears the motor doesn't work ( although maybe I just have to charge the battery.

Re: Hobbico Flyzone Micro Albatros
The Albatros is a Hobbico aka Tower Hobbies (read Futaba) offering, and as mortal enemies of Horizon, the Spektrum (JR) promoters one ain't too likely to work with the other
