Re: Helimax 40

Thanks for that Beav. You don't need to be so subtle - if you don't like
them just say so ;-)

You are quite right about one thing, although I have been a modeller for
donkeys years it has all been with fixed wing, both power and glider, my
knowledge of model helicopters is very limited, as is probably clear by now.

The Graupner website downloads only go back to 2002 whereas I'm thinking
1992 or earlier would be nearer the mark for this Helimax. I'll take your
last comment to heart and not spend too much on it and avoid old mills like
the plague.

It's not that don't like 'em Dave, it's that they're "historic" and should
really stay that way.

Before that. It's an '80's model and IIRC, EARLY '80's too.
