Re: What Hirobo do I have?

Nice, i had an old Shuttle. it even had the mechanical speed controller yet the heli looked almost identical to a newer one and i think it was around the 80's, main difference was tail brades were on opposite side of boom and had rocker and pushrod to control collective instead of the long arm the newer ones have. crashed it once and couldnt find parts for it. happened to be offered another shuttle of same era buy a ebay bidder that saw i won it. fixed it up, test flew it then sold it. i was surprised the mechanical gyro stilled worked but didnt wanna rish crashing it again since i spent a bit of money by that stage.
