Wow! How did that work? Was it similar to the Mattel style flying vehicles of the 60s and 70s that used counterbalanced arms on a rotating base?
Yes. It works the same as the Mattel/ Burbank vertibird, a counterbalance with a motor powering a prop in the saucer wired to the base unit. When I get a chance I’ll take a pic of it assembled. Will O.
Nulli Secundus did a precursor to Vertibird with a little tin copter and the same principle.
Would be nice too see it assembled. The box graphics alone are awesome!
