XLPower Stratos 200: What we get in the box

The smallest model of XLPower is about to arrive to the dealerships. The first batch will land on the shelves around end of April, early May, but XLPower already released a sneak peak about the packaging, and what to expect when the model arrives.

XLPower Stratos 200: What we get in the box

It seems, this year is more about the small models rather than the bigger ones. At least this is the vision so far. After the release of the latest competitor in the small class, the next model arriving is the Startos 200 from XLPower. A reel about the model in its packaging just emerged and well, the packaging a bit intimidating, compared to other models.

Because the Startos is not arriving fully assembled, this is not just "I pop her out and flies", some final assembly will be required, although, it should not be as difficult as it first seems. The tail and the landing skids are not assembled, the Azure blades are in separate packaging, tail blades are not installed, and this is the price of a neat, nice box sized the an average Lego kit. At the end of the day, we are supposed to be modelers or what, we should we able to pull this off. 

As we know, the first models will arrive to the UK by end of April, the UK retail price will be 319 pounds. Pre-orders are open at both ATModels and Midland Helicopters.
