[NSRCA-discussion] Off the wall....

I have the motor out on the workbench. I'm going to take some pix of it this morning and send them to Rex.
It appears new/never run. Looks to be of good quality with a recoil starter, cooling fan/shroud, etc. From what
little bit I've found on the web I think this was a replacement motor for the little generators they were used to power.
The shroud is green instead of orange which leads me to believe it was a military version. It is in the original box
with gov't part #, it's SN, date of mfg, etc.
I won't even attempt to turn it over. Don't want to take the chance of messing something up for the guy. It would
be neat to have as a novelty but don't think I would ever try to run it.
It is kinda cute though.
:-)

I had one of those, too. Engine never put out enough power, so I replaced it with the .60 conversion. I still have the remains of that copter :-)
