X7 Update

01-09-2016

It has been a few weeks since my Gaui X7 Formula build, and I have put ten or so flights on it so far. I`m still not 100% used to it yet, but we are fast becoming best friends. It has a very nice presence in the air, and keeping up with orientation is not a problem with this machine.

The cyclic and collective response on the X7 is crisp and fast, yet it feels completely locked in and predictable. Which is giving me the confidence to try new maneuvers that I have only had the nerve to do on the simulator until now.

I would love to have a little more room for electronics up front under the canopy though, and maybe a level place for the FBL unit. Other than that, I have no complaints. The X7 is an amazing helicopter, and I am really enjoying it. I can`t wait to get the rest of my Gaui fleet in order in the very near future.
