Eco Piccolo Details
Hi, sorry for the delay as I was out of town. OK so this is an Eco Piccolo micro electric heli, it has fixed pitch rotor head(the blades do not change angle of attack for lift). Lift is produced but increasing rotor head speed. Uses a micro motor for the tailrotor instead of a drive belt or wire. It is the "Fun" version which means it has bushings instead of bearings. Works fine if you want to get a taste of heli's without spending more money. It runs about $69 on the net without electronics. It uses all the micro rc equipment as all the other micro heli's. I used a GWS PG-03 gyro in it as I do in my Hummingbird. Some use the CSM and others Futaba. I wanted to see how inexpensive I could build one for. Lots and lots of upgrade parts available for it. This particular heli I built was a complete package inc. charger. Ran about $379
OK, let me know if you have any other questions!!! Happy to talk heli's
.....................Happy Hovering
