Status: offline 		I had a Concept .32 years ago.
I had a lot of fun with it.
Now I want to get back into heli's.
Any body know the rotor diameter and what was the weight?

Thanks,
Harry S.

Can you still get parts for it?

it was a Kyosho Concept, back then it competed with the Hirobo Shuttle. (allso a .30 size)
I think the Shuttle was a little better and caused the demise of the Concept.
It was 15 years ago and It cost me $1200 (including Futaba 7 channel transmitter)
one of the 4 super gurus I flew with, his name was "Knob" owned one & he was sponsered by Futaba & Hirobo.

Status: offline 		I have a Kyosho Concept 30 SR-T with a Futaba skyport 6h FP-T6 VH transmitter. This heli has never had fuel or been started. I fly a Esky king II electric and know nothing about a gasser.
My father bought this years ago and could never fly the simulator so he stuck to the planes and the heli sat on the shelf. I got it out the other day to check it out and would like to fly or sell it.
Again I know nothing about gasser's. Just getting back into this hobby.

Thank's
T

Status: offline 		As said above. They are great flyers, but have been out of production for many years now. As a newb you would be better off with a modern machine with good parts support (Caliber 3, Raptor 30) Sell the Concept as they are increasingly being bought as spares, and a brand new one like yours should fetch good money to a collector. Saying that, I still fly my old SR-T regularly between all the 3D stuff and fixed wing

Status: offline 		Im about to get a Concept 30 in a trade and I was wondering if they fly well inverted. Also, I heard the parts are interchangable with the caliber 30. Is this true? Jeff

Sorted.

Seriously, the Concept is a collectors item now. Parts are almost non existant. It is a good flyer, but I'd class it as a begginers heli. Good for hover and circuit work only.
