I just finished putting together E-Flite's Brio 10.
I have it set up using:
480 Outrunner
1350Ma Li-Po
E-Flite 40Amp ESC
Berg 7 ch. receiver.

The kit goes together easy enough and general quality is nice. There are a few warped or misaligned controls that are a bit of a disappointment.

As is, with the battery installed, mine weighed in at 790 grams which is the low end weight for it.

The CG however is quite a bit back. I had to place the battery way up into the cowling where there is no battery tray. I might go with a heavier battery (2100mah) to get the CG more forward.

Next step to see how it flies.

In my FuntanaX the structure holding the "firewall" came loose after a few flights... reinforce the crummy glue joints with CA...
I liked the Brio.... nice looking...
