ya, i had the same problem, in the end i used two screwdrivers which i put into the plastic holes of the cover, and carefully pushed them slightly outwards to get a grip on it, then slowly moved the cover out of the fuse...a bit difficult but i did it without any damage...and because i did a rework on mine i put some fake flare dispenser on the cover which double as hand grips, so its super easy to remove the cover now

The spring can get out of position when the wheel is down, and then it jams when you try to retract the gear. I fixed mine with a piece of thread.Originally posted by R.Marijnissen View PostSo what are the must do mods? 1. The extra front wheel block. 2. Some hot glue for the wheel door spring ( why is that?
More must do mods?
I put an Assan G61 steering gyro in mine, and an FMS fan.

Seems we have a V2 Avanti:
I like the new nosegear doors (although mine never gave the problems that others experienced) and the upgraded power system.
Paint scheme - its beauty (or not) is in the eye of the beholder. It should be easy to see in the air. With luck this one won't peel off.
The "pilot" looks stupid**. It was better with the smoke canopy.
The rear end still looks unfinished.
** Why does FW/FL in general use such awful pilot figures?

Always a good day to wake up to a new product announcement, moreso with the Avanti V2
Definitely happy they've put the new fan in. I presume it still has the bolted-on wings instead of the new pop-on/pop-off wing system the cougar has?
My old V1 outrunner version and 'V1.5' with inrunner are still going strong, but it's nice to know that once those two finally fall victim to a too-low maneuver that an even better version will be out. Hopefully MRC will create a VT add-on for it, or come out with a sport jet (90mm 8S AreS to replace the Stinger 90?) with it pre-designed in. :)
