Hirobo Shuttle

[IQ50]

Well I bought my Shuttle on Ebay,it was in flying order but looked a bit tired,I decided to have a go at getting it to look like the Shuttle did back in 1985.Straight away i realised that the canopy was probably form a later model as it was white and not blue,also would I be able to get the stickers no, but asking for help on here I was put onto Cali graphics and after sending a few photos he came up with the goods and great service to,so to cut a long story short here's what I did.

Thanks Larry,It was the first nitro Heli I saw when I was a youngster and always wanted one,this is what I copied,and a couple more shots with a few more stickers on.

Yea .. as I remember it came with a lot of different stuff you could stick on ... but it was usually kind of phony stuff ... you have the basics and it looks good . Those of us that are of that vintage would recognize it

That looks fantastic!
You did a great job, glad Callies was able to help you out.

Looks real good
I have one sitting on the shelf
waiting for a restore also
Was my first heli

But Im a real sucker for abuse
I am trying to find a original short main shaft and a DDF head for mine
I doubt I ever find one though

They were real bad for boom strikes
but they hovered awesome

Yeah, I flew one recently in windy conditions (bad idea), and had a boom strike when it landed. I got another boom from rcjapan.
