Identifying an older x-cell pro...

Please excuse a newbie's ignorance... Can anyone tell me the model, any obvious upgrades, and lastly ballpark value based on appearance?

Thanks in advance!

looks like an older X-cell Pro graphite.. 60 from the late 80's to early 90's.. not sure what it would be worth best guess get the best offer and go with it.... or just flyit if it's all there not a bad machine hek! It'a a MA machine haven't flown a bad one yet.. regarless of the age.. Besdes that alot of FAI guys like the standard mix machines for less interaction..


good luck

The main frames are Pro I, the original XL Pro but the collective system is Pro II, a very desirable upgrade. I cannot see the head or TR but would assume original Pro. Nice flying model with 27 degrees of available pitch. I 3Ded the snot out of one for several years and it held up great, the only problem is that this frame set is no longer avaialble so if it were crashed, and any lower frame member damaged, both would have to be replaced along with a couple of braces. Looks like this model has the slipper clutch autorotation instead of the constant drive. If I were flying it, I would upgrade to the new white gear constant drive.
These were great models in their day and still fly great.

Thx guys for all the info! With my current skill set, the probability of crashing is still high so it sounds like I might be better off getting a different model.

Thanks again!
