I really like the model so far, have had a couple issues with bolts coming out even with locktite ( I could have used a better quality locktite) and had a hole in my fuel tank due to the tank slipped out of the grommets when I took the motor out of it and I didnt notice it until vibration wore a little hole in it. It is very stable in hover and forward flight. I can only imagine that it will be the same for 3D manouvers. It builds very fast and is solid built model. I can only expect more great things out of this as time progresses. The part of it that I am most fond of is the price! $299.99 ARF price and $284.99 kit price, and the spares are cheap too. go to www.audacitymodels.com for some more info. Thanks for the comments, Billy

Nope, I really like the way they did it tho, the servo mount is moulded in the frame right underneath where the boom goes so its a direct linkage . Thought it was pretty cool for stock. Thanks for the comments!

I got the kit, that way I could understand how it was put together and get to know the machine. A very nice kit! very easy to put together.

my guess is that the bolts had some oil on them from my work bench as I had the parts out on the my bench before I installed them. I honestly can't remember what the brand name of the locktite I used was, So next time i build a model I am going to clean the threads with denatured acohol before installation.
