Albatros or Pandora

[jobinseattle]

I am torn whether I will get the Albatros or the Pandora. Anyone have any recommendations?

RE: Albatros or Pandora

Depends on what you want to do with it I guess. I've had my Pandora for a year or more now and it has become my go to plane. I always take it with me flying because it's just a joy to fly and works great on grass fields, I use it in tail dragger config and it takes off in 4 feet and with the optional flaps I installed, only takes about 4 feet to land as well. And it's a good camera plane for both POV and FPV. So if you want a terrific large stable plane that can fly high or low wing, tricycle or tail dragger, that would be my choice.

Thanks for your input.

The Pandora is very versatile --it's literally four planes in one, which is a great value for the price. I use 3s 2200s, up to 3s 3300s, to train my students on touch and go's for about 7 minutes of safe flight time.

Thank you. I take there is not difference between the red and blue? I am leaning towards the red pandora.

No difference at all!

I did have a picture of when I rigged one of mine in high wing/low wing configuration at the same time, a Pandora biplane!
Personally I prefer the Red White and Blue one.

Hey, they're great planes, a little under powered but aerobatics are no problem and you can add optional flaps which are a lot of fun.
They're a great experimental plane as well, I used them to try out the A3L gyro and wow it makes them just come alive.
