Parts for a 1990 Shuttle?
A friend wants to sell me his 1990 Hirobo Shuttle w/ an OS Max 32F. Before I consider it, can anyone advise if parts are easy to find for such an old heli? Thanks.

yes!
most of the older parts have been replaced with new updated parts, but they interchange with the old ones quite easily. I personally fly a mid 90's vintage zxx and i get all my parts from www.heliproz.com or www.modelrec.com never had a problem gettting the parts i need to keep it flying.

We have a lot of old Shuttle parts. The shuttle is still being made. There is a good chance that the parts you are looking for have been substituted boy newer parts.
If you have part numbers try giving MRC a call.

Hello,
Just joined RCuniverse, & was glad to see i wasn't the ony one still into 90's Hirobo Shuttle ZX.Brokeplenty of landing gear andtrashed the old canopy so much i finally got around to experimenting with fiberglass construction. Ended up machining a few new metal parts such as main blade holders, & tail rotor housings.
