  • Roban 800 mechanics (including Fenestron)

    We've been asked to share more detailed photos of what is inlcuded in some of the Roban 800 Super Scale series helicopter ARFs, which often include purpose-designed mechanics that rearrange the conventional mech layout to allow for the batteries to be under the floor and the motor/servos to be concealed when the side doors are opened on, say, an EC-135.

    Recently we've been slowly updating the product photos on the website. Here are a few of my favorites (especially the LED backlit illuminated instrument panel! I'll post a few photos here in Hobby Squawk of other helicopters as we go.

    These photos are from the Roban 800 EC-135 shown HERE:

    The EC-135 featured a shaft-driven Fenestron tail, which is very unique. The ARF includes the scale four blade rotor head and a full set of blades, too:
