Hirobo SST-Condor EX

Here is my rare Hirobo SST Condor EX released in the end of '80. It is new in his complete box. This versione is the EX (export) with top cone start and different canopy than "normal" Condor.

It is a entry level model for F3C competition. It is very similar to SST Eagle but with plastic head (it is a FFZ head) and not in metal and other minor difference like the belt tail (always in plastic).

The box is huge like the others Hirobo helicopter of that time and i love it.

I also own the SST Eagle DDF. See the link below.

Kyosho Caliber 60

Here is last treasure landed here like Kyosho collector. It is a rare Kyosho Caliber 60 new in box. It was one of most expensive heli and the best F3C helicopter for that time.

In the 1999 the list price was 298.000yen ( 238.000y was the discounted price). So about 2500Euro only for the mechanic.

I own others two caliber 60; one new only built with all elettronics fitted and the other one still in a box. See link below:
