I just saw [link=http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:E7VXphpKpPYJ:shop.store.yahoo.com/bigkidatheart]this heli[/link] at a hobby store in Singapore a couple of days ago. It's very small, about 10" long with a rotor span about the same. The fuselage is foam, and it uses the two motor deal, except there's a shaft and 90 degree bevel gears which run the tail rotor from a motor next to the main shaft. It appears to have 2 gyros- each on a different axis. They were exposed metel disks within the radio compartment. It was about $400 US. I could not believe all the hobby stores they have there; many unique things I haven't seen before, like an entire Tamiya store, and a Mini Z Chevy Caprice cop car that hasn't been released yet. That Kyosho Calibur was about $50 cheaper. Should've picked one up.

I think that little chopper you mention is the "keyance revoultor' search early posts from ikarus forum to find out more about it http://www.ikarus-modellbau.de/ubbth...true#Post79056, singapore difently on my shopping list as can get futaba 9c for same price as servo city (who wont ship out of the states) wich is under half the price off home land stores(and can get main brand stuff to like astro).

Check this months issue of Model Aviation. There is a small X-rotation heli in there that is about 4 " long and uses IR to control it.
