Default GMP??? Help Identifying

Need help identifying these mechanics, I think they are GMP King Cobra but I am not sure. The mechanics came with an OS SH-60 Engine.

I just picked up an unfinished Bell 222 / Airwolf kit, the mechanics need help and I am on the hunt for the manual for these showing me the part breakdowns etc. If anyone can identify and/or has a copy of the applicable manual I would be happy to pay for the copying and shipping if I could get a copy of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The Cobra head had some dihedral built in it. Otherwise the same as the King Cobra. Usually 50 in a cobra 60 in the King.
But many, many 60's in the cobra also.

definately the cobra. that is the custom head on it. the king cobra had the "pro" head on it and so did the competitor. they also had the black anodized frames. i used to fly a lot of gmp birds in the mid to late 80's. they were great machines for scale.

So with the 60 in it, it is the King cobra?

I have no idea on the amount of time it was "buried" bought it off of a swap meet table with the airwolf fuse paid all of 30 bucks for it so I figured what the heck right? I am going to hold it for a while and trya nd accumulate parts for it, Like PC links and anything else I can scrounge. The corosion on it is pretty substantial so step one will be to strip it downa dn clean it up.

If anyone has a book on it I would greatly appreciate an email. I would really like to buy a copy of it.

Thanks for all the input guys

same power as the king with a 60 but with the shorter boom, blades and the custom head. you may be in luck for a manual. i will have to dig, but i think i came across one while looking for something else.
