Hirobo Shuttle Z

So I have a found what appears to be a brand new "Ready to Fly" in the original box on Craigslist.

They were asking 250 for it. What do you all think it is worth? I have made them an offer.

Thanks

Don't know if Hirobo still makes parts for this one.

I still own a Shuttle ZX, which is the factory upgraded version of the Z. The Shuttle ZX kit retailed for about $285.00 in 1994. You supplied your own engine and radio system.

So what's included with the Z? Radio, engine? I suggest that you investigate parts availability for that exact model before buying, particularly for the wear items such as the clutch and clutch bell. I could still find original clutch parts for my ZX up to about 2 years ago, but those factory originals didn't last very long. The after-market upgrade clutch parts are not available anymore. And as I recall, the Z clutch was worse than the ZX clutch

Other then that, I had a blast learning to fly the thing. Hundreds of flights, with a good deal of maintenance. Good luck!

Thanks for the responses. I will see what all it has as I offered 150 cash. Should be interesting as it says Ready to fly.
