I myself had never heard of this heli until your thread. I googled it and found some information but looking at the mrc website this heli isn't available. Would love to see some pics of yours. Maybe these aren't available in the US market but are elsewhere, where are you from kb8ife?

Here's some pictures of the Tsurugi. I guess this model is only available in Japan and other Asian countries. It's basically the ancestor of the Freya.

Thanks for the picture I do like this heli, like I said I have 6 of them and a lot of parts so no need for me to change this was a very sought after heli 15 years ago I do have some video on you tube www.youtube.com/kb8ife I'm in white cloud 50 miles north of Grand Rapids and I see you are also a ham. I have a prob. with a os 61 and fuel all over the motor I think I have a bad bearing on the front of the motor ?
thanks jim

I still have three. the last time I flew one was about 4 years ago.

the rotor head system of tsurugi is still alive in the current hirobo scale line.

Tsurugi was sold in the US before Freya came along.
