Hello, Is this Shuttle fully assembled except for the radio? Are the servos and a gyro installed? Since you've already spent some money on this when you bought it, probably would be worth getting a radio for it. Get a good radio so that if you want to upgrade your heli, you'll already have the radio. Maybe Colin can give you some advise, he's a Shuttle man and probably knows as much as anybody about them. I have a ZX and a ZXX, but have not finished getting them ready for flight. I've been spending my spare time lately on my Harley and neglecting the heli's. Good luck in whatever you decide.
