Many years ago I was Flying a Merlin SW4a full size with a fellow Modeler in the CoPilots seat. On Take Off the right engine failed of course we were heavy and the engine caused the SW4 to yaw a bit but it turned out well. The First Officer and I have been good friends since that day kinda like a bonding experience. At Dinner that night he showed me Photos of his 1st SR71A.

I'm telling you this because this fellow also was one of the earliest RC Pilots of both the SR71 from Yellow and the one I have in my shop.
His advice is the same as yours restore it and donate it. I have to tell U she sure is a beauty with about 3 weeks work she would be pristine.

My small workshop is jammed packed just finishing a Dave Patrick Edge 540T
Next to Go but will be a planned 2 Month Great Planes Matt Chapman Cap580 1/3rd scale
Then the SR71A just can't decide if I should replace the servos and make her functional.

Thanks For ur Input
