The first one i bought was back in 1985 A Schluter .60 think it was called a Heli-boy. Must have spent a grand in replacement rotor blades and parts. Then I picked up a Hirobo Shuttle, that one had a gyro in it. ( only slighty less harder to fly...) also a fortune in replacement parts.
The newer elctric ones are sooooo much better.
