Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I've been into RC helicopters.  I've discovered
sports motorbikes, and now spend sunny still days cruising up and down
mountains and generally being aimless, and loving it.  So the heli has been
long neglected and sits, clean, in my loungeroom getting ooh's and aah's
from guests.

It is now for sale.  It is a JR Ergo 30, pretty stock standard:
- NEJ130 gyro (still boxed, I've been using a CSM which has already been
sold.)
- Enya .35X(H) engine - nice 'n torquey for a .35
- JR XP642 computer radio set (R600 receiver, NES517 servos)
- both the colour Jap manual and a B&W english one

I've added a decent onboard battery monitor, and upgraded to an anodised K&S
starter-bearing hub (very recommended to anyone else building and flying the
stock kit.)

In Australia, the above package retails for $1495, and another $45 for the
upgrades I've made.
I'm asking $1000.  Glad to offer inspections, you'll find the heli clean,
straight, and flyable.

Also, I have a water-resistant, impact-resistant, doubles-as-a-seat
FLIGHTBOX that I made early this year.  It has a power panel built in,
contains two levels of tools and parts, holds the 12v, starter gear, fuel
pump, and packs away quickly and nicely.  I haven't added the latch to
attach the fuel can yet, but that would be quite easy to do.  It's light,
and a few flyers have commented favourably on it.

As a package, I'd sell the heli, my flight box, the tools, new 12v battery +
charger, fuel can, a bit of fuel, and a few spares - everything you need to
get on the field - for $1300 (or nearest offer).

E-mail replies please!
