Phoenix 1600. Unofficial Unboxing.

...what's in the box

After ordering a Phoenix 1600 on the weekend I received it yesterday double-packaged and in a nice picture box.



Everything is very well packaged and protected inside the box, so there was no travel damage at all. Being a Lanyu/Volantex creation, so a nice high-quality piece of kit all round with a beautifully moulded fuselage with built-in battery tray with strap.

The EPO wings and tail are high-quality mouldings with excellent surface finish, and all servos are pre-installed except for the flaps. Provision is made for installing flap servos in the wings, and liknages are supplied

The few areas where complaint was levelled at older models, like the clevises supplied with the Phoenix 2000's, have been fixed on this later iteration.

I'm looking forward to assembling it and will uploading some tech on that as well...
