Avanti ships in 3 very large boxes as this is a big jet. I'm guessing around 800-1K for DHL shipping.

4959 + 800 or so in shipping so $5790 total, still not too bad for a 2.8 meter jet.

Anyway I plan on ordering it without the landing gear, pipe, and hardware, will use a TAMS pipe, Behotec Electric Landing Gear, servo driven doors.

Now all that needs to be done is to finalize the color scheme (if they allow pallet swap).

I have a set of brand new retract , strut /wheels and brakes + pipe for the eurofighter, I wonder how much mod would it need to fit. Man $800 shipping is a killer

Im in waiting for an answer on all white version. Then you can paint however you like.
Not sure what or if other schemes will be available.

I'm thinking all white will be the best option to me, white gel coat should be faster in production, assuming there is a decent difference in price.. I know for example composite arf basically says, Meh we'll give you $50.00 off if you get all white, but if you want a color swap its $100.00/color... a little ridicoulous.

Skymaster on the other like BVM has a good bit discount if you don't want a color scheme, since this is a big jet I'm hoping the all white is at least $500.00 cheaper.

On skymaster's site: http://www.skymasterjet.com/viperjet.htm is $500.00 cheaper in all white vs the colored schemes, in some cases $700.00 cheaper.

If they did offer different shemes, I would love to get this one:

The Scheme is Seb Arts Signature scheme. I would be surprised if he does it in a different colour.

I don't like the look of that flying site in the video's no room for error there

Also get info on bigger pipes, I just bought a B300F turbiune
Need to see what type of servos will be needed to move 73 lbs of thrust in the tail with the 3d nozzle

Hey guys. I'm still waiting for ALL the info back from Skymaster.

Thanks for your patience.

I have some information...


The unpainted gel coat version will be 2495.00

At this time the items on the pricing list is what's available. . They will develop larger pipe with thrust vector nozzle in the future.

For custom schemes I would need details and photos of paint schemes to see what they would charge and if they can do it.

Thanks again

Again, Its up to Skymaster to determine if they will do the custom scheme or not. Also this may increase the standard production time as custom stencils will need to be cut for the schemes as well
