5. yeah, i kinda agree with everyone here on the date thing . looks like a 60 size GMP heli, which was not developed until some time after Dieter Schluters historic first controlled flight at the Sandown Emporium in 1971. still, makes me wish i kept my "heli-star".

12. There was never any RC-Helicopter in 1960 at all !!! The first RC-.Heli (Schlüter Cobra) was in 1969 !!!
