Thanks for the quick reply! I'm sure it's a very old model. The covering, the old covering, was the thickest stuff I have ever seen. Tough as nails! I appreciate the build of this thing! too bad there's no serial number or marking to identify its manufacturer. I am not really good at sending photos and such. My only hope was a ball park estimation on the throws. Still, I have enough experience to fly it with the settings I think are about right. Only spent $ 50 on it, plus covering but like anything we do in this hobby, you don't like loosing our birds!
