steve69 Senior Heliman Location: Newbury, Berkshire, UK.
| Looking at the photos that looks the be an RG shuttle, note the Alloy stacked frames, worth considerably more than that of a standard plastic shuttle. The RG is a fairly rare and expensive version of the shuttle, parts are a little harder to get hold of but not imposible, if the price was right I would buy it in a heart beat but mostly to have it pollished on the shelf with the occasional outing to the field (Did I mention it is a little rare these days )
The radio is getting rather old, (I have one I use for the sim) I dont like it for my heli's as only three point throttle and pitch curves, but would work.
I also notice that half the fin on the boom is missing/broken.
If your not looking to do some work to make sure that this heli is ready and safe to fly and want something you can go straight out and fly I would say pass but if you have a bit of spare cash and can afford to buy it anyway to set up and fly later then go for it as it is a very nice machine (for something that is probably around 6 to 10 years old if not more)
