Do any of you remember the ARF's that were sold by Royal in the late 80's? I had a .40-sized bird that looked like a pattern ship (even had a space for optional retracts), and flew pretty well. I also had a Royal Chipmunk (.40-size) from that same era.

Anyone know what the name of the pattern bird was, and where I might find a pic of it and the Royal Chipmunk? I've searched all over the net, but to no avail. I can no longer find my personal pics from that time, and would like to snag pictures for my personal archives.

Thanks!

Dave,

I had one of those way back then. It was a copy of EZ's Maverick....Can't remember the name. I'll be thinking to see if I can remember. Now you have my brain scrambling to remember ;-)

This is my first RCU post -- not sure how posting works yet.

I remember them as the Royal Telstar 25 and 40. I think they were a cheaper reproduction of the EZ Sports Aviation Cavalier 20 and 40.

Royal is before my time (not that I'm a youngster though). Google got them on the first try.

Perhaps you've found it by now --

Wow...great box cover. That's the one, thanks for the pic for my archives!
