| My Aurora is done. I got the kit on Friday.
No missing parts, everything fit perfectly.
Very nice helicopter, the industrial raw metal look really works. The design has some very nice features, for example it's easy to get a neat wiring job on this model as there is space below the gear mounting tray. Also, no shortage of gear mounting space, plenty of places to run velcro.
The only note I would have on the build are to pay attention to the orientation of your bearing blocks and take the time to get the gear mesh right. Also, when running Futaba servo's, there's no way to get the 12.5-13mm length from the horn center as indicated. I just ended up using a standard "star" horn. My rod lengths were off from the book.
It builds very similar to a MA model and I consider it an intermediate level kit.
Later this week: flight report.
Augusto - beautiful design, 5/5 stars, A++
