When did you successfully contact them on IG? I tried months ago but received no answer from them

They dont reply on IG and FB. I requested models weeks ago but they didn’t even read

What do you need? Requests will probably not be answered since AV400 only does what he wants pretty much

Doing what they want is not a good business strategy to sell models

At least its on the new liveryKAL 359. For anyone looking to buy (I’d highly suggest waiting a few days), the engine color and upper wing reg placement are wrong.

Av400 has really lost the plot on their A350s.
After pioneering the type's best mould in 1:400, their subsequent revisions and modifications have only made the mould slip in its excellence - and with the advent of NG's, and now Panda's, I am no longer interested in Av400s A350 offerings.
It's really sad.

That's a little extreme. While I agree the NG and Panda 350s are better the recent changes to the landing gear, engine pylons and fanblades have improved the mould and it is better now than at the start when you liked it. This recent bunch haven't had the wingfit or nose issues some had in the past. It isn't my 1st choice but since Panda make so few A350s it is regularly the second. Definitely needs new winglets though
Here's an early example:
and here's the Edelweiss I reviewed last week:
The engine pylons, maingear bogey, tyre hub size, aerial size and fanblades are better on the Edelweiss. I'm less sure about the metal coloured hubcaps. Like I said it isn't the NG or Panda, but it is better than the Phoenix, JC Wings / Gemini offering in my view, plus it has mag gear.

While that is true, what I was trying to state, and now I can reflect on it and perhaps articulate a little better, is about Av400 having slipped from being at the cutting edge with their A350s.
Av400 led the way, and at the time, there was quite the distance between Av400s and PHX/JC-GJ, so much so that I avoided the latter altogether - like a hard cut, so to speak - which continues till today.
The Av400s were that good, when compared to the competition.
With the introduction of NG's, Av400 hasn't been able to keep up. Which is unfortunate. I was implying this aspect, of them no longer being at the top of their game across the board (A380s being the notable exception)
Exactly you know, and it's such a primary feature!
I'm just stumped they haven't updated it, even after more than a year-18 months of the 'new' mould being in development!
Right, and you'll notice that I align with that view - maybe how I expressed it, I wished Av400 would get their act together to really refine the mould form and details further.
Amongst the available moulds, along with NG's and PM's, Av400 offers the only real competition, but at some distance still. Just viewing it through maybe very tough scrutiny Hehe - more than I should.
I don't even consider the existence of PHX/JC /GJ in the A350 department,
.Perhaps, from a very personal standpoint, I'm a little dismayed at Av400 not being able to keep up, or perhaps loosing their edge, or perhaps biting off more than they can chew, with their ambitions - and perhaps thus not taking care of many obvious things.
I'm 100% in alignment with you. My view is that their resources are shared with Inflight and that seems to limit what they can achieve. I think they will update the A350 winglets but I am also surprised they haven't yet done so.While that is true, what I was trying to state, and now I can reflect on it and perhaps articulate a little better, is about Av400 having slipped from being at the cutting edge with their A350s.

At least with AV they are willing to modify the moulds and are trying to do better. They don't quite reach the heights of NG or Panda but they are striving to do more and I can't fault them for that.
