I don t know much about this helicopter. I am selling for a friend whose husband passed away and he.
Item specifics
Condition: | Used |
I was able to get the engine to run however it will need the carbs cleaned and a tune up(bottom carburetor not allowing fuel to feed 2 cylinders). See the link for a video of it running. I did install 4 new plugs and am including a brand new starter for the helicopter as well(old one appears to function fine and is currently installed). here > I was not able to get the push button on the gauge panel to work so I put a hot wire on the starter and connected it to the positive battery terminal(jumper cables). There appears to be several electrical issues that need to be addressed but they seem to be minor issues. I did remove the drive belts from the engine to start the helicopter to prevent any blade spin since we were inside of a building. The skins are no attached they are just set on the aircraft.
This would be a great father/son(daughter) project or someone looking for a hobby aircraft.
There are no log books with the aircraft and is being sold as is where is with no warranty or liability of the owner or seller going with the aircraft.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me and I will be glad to help you out in any way I can.
I require $1000 deposit within 24 hours of the end of the auction and payment in full within 10 days from the end of auction(unless you make other arrangements prior to bidding). Credit Card payments will add 2.9% fee to the total(0% cash or direct withdrawal). If your paying with a check or money order you will not be able to pick up the aircraft until the check has fully cleared.
