Richard Harris Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Jesus, The TVM Hobbit came without a plan and came with pre cut parts as per most kits of the day, A4 sheets were supplied with the instructions on how to construct. Somewhere I have a set of these instructions and I am almost sure I re drew the Hobbit but I would have to look on my old computer. Here is the TVM Hobbit promotional video I uploaded, I am guessing it would have been made around the early 1980's but I am sure someone could confirm this from the radio/engines being used on the video? Give me a few days and I will see what I can find. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus Ortega Delgado Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 Thanks Harry . Yes , I know that video . I bought my C 30 in 1985 . I saw the Hobbit in the Henry Nichols shop side by side with my C30 kit. I have the C30 instructions and plan . I re drew some parts in the plans thinking in a future crash. Today I have that model in flight ¡¡¡¡ I have too a Micromold Wallis complete and a Robin from Kalt ( vintage models). If you need information about these models let me know. I will be happy if you can find the re drew plans for me. I have the mechanics parts , I only need the fuse sections , ruder stabilizer .. The flight instructions are the same .

Jesus Ortega Delgado Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Thanks Ken. Next month I will start with the step-by-step flying test . I have been flying autogyros from 1984 . The first was an Avro C-30 from Tames Valley models that it is still in flight ¡¡¡ , very good model . The autogyros are very fussy , they are differents . For instance , I have an ROBIN rc autogyro from Kalt that never managed put in flight . Regards , Jesus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Ortega Delgado Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 Merci beaucoup . Thanks a lot . , Congratulations , you have a lot information about gyros. I have a small collection gyros at home. I have a Whopper , new in box . I flew this gyro many years ago with the first blades ( next , Schluter sold a new design blades). Very fast , and very difficult to flight due to weight . A Webra Speed .61 with an special mufller was the minimun thrust requested to put in flight .
