My personal opinion id go for either AV400 or NG since both have similar quality plus AV400 2day has new moulds like their MAGNETIC LANDING GEAR on their A380 and 787s plus actual spinning fan blades on their aircraft models

[@CitrusAviation]

Yeah, the retractable landing gear being added to Aviation 400 models is a huge plus!! That added with the jewel bacon lights, tilting landing gear, and spinning fan blades makes it truly awesome!!

Thanks so much citrus, I was gonna buy an a350 but didn’t know which manufacture had the best mold, then I saw this video and now I know which one I should buy.

[@CitrusAviation]

It's my pleasure! I'm glad this video was so helpful for you!

[@ed1011]

It will be better if you put the boxes behind the models, otherwise people will get lost after a few shot changes. Also scores in a table format, so it is easy to see the comparison. thank you

[@CitrusAviation]

Thank you so much for the feedback! I will consider these recommendations for future videos.

[@junichi6707]

Thanks for the review. I am actually thinking of buying the new JAL a350-1000, but i am between aviation400 and Ng.

[@CitrusAviation]

The A350-1000 moulds are very similar to each brand’s A350-900 so the comparison basically extends to those. I will do an A350-1000 mould comparison at sone point.

[@MSP_aviation]

Thank you for informing my decision.

[@CitrusAviation]

My pleasure! I'm glad the video was helpful to you.

For what I see, the geminijets delta a350 cockpit is an isolated case in terms of printing, I have an airfrance a350 and the windows look perfect, even compared with your delta 350

[@CitrusAviation]

Gemini Jets cockpit window placement issue seems to be one of those things like their other QC issues that tend to happen to certain batches of models and not others.

[@HEAK41]

I have a A350 but I don’t know what company it is but I got it at Airbus Alabama where they build the planes and paint them

[@CitrusAviation]

That is cool! What scale is it?

[@Kuricang31]

If it's 1/200 it is made by Lupa Models and if it's 1/400 it was made by Dragon Wings. I've got several of those official Airbus merchandise models from their store in Toulouse, France and as a gift from a colleague I've known for years
Bit inferior in my opinion from the Boeing official merchandise which was made exclusively by Hogan Wings

[@vibingpug9857]

so does the jemini jets also have tilted and rolling landing gear?
edit: also do the flaps move on the jemini jets?

[@CitrusAviation]

The Gemini Jets and JC Wings A350 have tilting gear, but they not always work. The flaps are fixed in position.

[@aviation24studios97]

Watch this video go viral 😀👍

[@CitrusAviation]

I'd be down for that!

[@Southernswag8283]

I’m a huge collector in Gemini jets and it bothers me they don’t listen to the feedback about the landing gear. They are so fragile and use to weak of a landing gear struts and the wheels are very poorly made. I wish they would just make a good quality rubber tire that is tough. The whole model is nice so why settle for cheap brittle landing gear?? This will forever bother me. It’s the main issue I have with my models. I have so many broken front landing gears on my models.

[@CitrusAviation]

Yeah. The quality of those gears could be improved. In order to get more realistic looking gears they compromised the quality of them cussing so many nose gears to break and twisted mains in particular. These gears do you sone plastic parts so replacing all of it with metal would help.

DL 350s do not fly to JFK

[@CitrusAviation]

I stand corrected.
