Okay I got this heli from a friend who works with a guy who gave it to him. The guy started the build and never finished, so the heli was never flown, My buddy has many helis and planes and figured he would give it to me. When I got it I got every thing even the box . these are some of a few pics I have so far as the build goes I will post more and keep the thread alive. any question ask other than that enjoy, the engine is a enya .46 the frist picture is how I got the heil. It was very dirty and I am slowly getting it together ready for flight. going through everything.

its nitro, I went through the engine to make sure it was all intact. which it as matter of fact its was brand new. but still went through it. The tray the servos sit on is actually wooden this mfa is a really neat kit they were made in the u.k in kent around the 80's.

I would probably run a break in tank just to make sure. Kits that old need more than thread locker. Those kits needed a lot of tlc.
