Avios continues to bring you great flying, and high-quality RC models of interesting subjects, this theme continues with the Avios Twin Otter STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) twin-engine plane. The Avios model captures the looks and great flying characteristics of the full-size inspired Twin Otter. The impressive power-to-weight ratio and light wing loading makes for exceptional low-speed handling and STOL flight characteristics.

The Avios Twin Otter is also crammed full of outstanding features, these include a set of large barn door style flaps, counter-rotating props for improved handling, scale outline with detailed surface finish, and scale plastic parts. Other features include a fully sprung, all metal CNC nose strut with servo saver, low bounce soft foam oversized bush wheels, and day bright LED lights throughout.

The list of outstanding features goes on with a set of floats included, these are easily fitted in place of the tricycle landing gear so that you can have even more fun flying from lakes and rivers. The included Aerostar RVS speed controllers make flying from water on the floats so much easier, they allow you to maneuver and taxi even in the more challenging conditions and situations that can be found on inland waters. To further help when flying with the floats fitted are a pair of optional tail fins, these increase the yaw stability caused by the extra drag of the floats. Avios have also included two magnetically held interchangeable nose sections, one short to emulate the "Series 100" Twin Otter, and one long so that you can quickly change the look of your Twin Otter to a "Series 200".

Supplied as a PNF (Plug-N-Fly) model made in tough EPO foam, the Avios Twin Otter includes the following factory-installed components. 2 x 3020-800KV brushless motors, 2 x Aerostar 30A G2 RVS instant reverse ESC, 2 x 9.3x6 3-blade scale looking propellers, and 7 x 9g metal-geared digital servos. Pre-installed quick connections in the removable wing tips for the wing servos and LED lights make for quick assembly at the field or disassembly for transport or storage, and the battery, and radio access is also very easy courtesy of the large, magnetically held access hatch. The initial assembly takes a little time as there are quite a number of screws used, but once assembled it can pretty much be transported in one piece with the wing tips removed. As mentioned above, once at the field, or lake, it is then just a simple matter of attaching the wing tips with the 4 supplied hex-head machine screws.

Features

Impressive power-to-weight ratio and STOL capabilities	Supplied with optional floats and long/short magnetically held nose sections
The Avios is renowned for its impressive power-to-weight ratio and Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) capabilities. This feature allows the aircraft to take off and land in extremely short distances, whether on runways, grass, beaches, or even from lakes and rivers, significantly enhancing its flexibility and adaptability. The combination of powerful output and lightweight design ensures exceptional performance under various conditions, making it a delight for aviation enthusiasts who seek versatile flying options and excitement.	The Avios comes supplied with optional floats and long/short magnetically held nose sections, catering to diverse flight scenarios. The inclusion of detachable floats enables the plane to take off and land effortlessly on water, expanding the range of possible flying environments. Meanwhile, the quick-swap capability between the long and short nose sections allows pilots to personalize the aircraft's appearance and ensure flight stability and flexibility according to their preferences or operational requirements. This design underscores Avios' attention to detail and profound understanding of user needs.
Day bright LED lights throughout	Fully sprung, all metal CNC nose strut with servo saver mechanism
The Avios is equipped with bright LED lights throughout its body, which remain highly visible even during the day, adding an extra layer of visual appeal to the flight experience. Whether soaring in the sky or preparing for takeoff on the ground, these LED lights ensure high visibility of the aircraft, enhancing flight safety. They also provide essential illumination for night flying, allowing pilots to clearly identify the aircraft's status and position even in low-light conditions.	The Avios features a fully sprung, all-metal CNC nose strut equipped with a servo saver mechanism. This design not only strengthens the structural integrity of the nose strut but also effectively absorbs impact during landings through spring damping, safeguarding the aircraft's overall structure. Additionally, the servo saver mechanism protects the servo from damage under extreme flight conditions, ensuring stable control and flight safety. This comprehensive approach reflects a dual focus on flight performance and safety.
