Vintage RC Helicopters - Joe's Collection - Morley (MH) Joe's Collection - Morley (MH) Joe William Richardson Morley Hughes 300 Bought 08 complete with engine and radio gear and full strip down of head plus in depth inspection carried out on the rest of the helicopter. Radio gear and linkages generally OK though needed completely setting up for correct lengths to ensure that bell cranks were at 90 degrees etc. Engine is an old OS 40 FSR and has compression though will need running to determine the exact condition of the engine and if it is suitable for continued use. Head needed a bit of work as the dampers had 'bonded' themselves to the teeter plate and the clamp pieces so the whole head would have acted like a 'fixed' head. Jan 10 put into storage as linkages need better setting up. Morley Hughes 300 Bought in May 08 as an unfinished project though it will need a full strip as some of the build assembly looks a bit 'dodgy' in places. Intention is to keep this one as the 'donor' mechanics in the hope of finding the 'Scout' body kit; you never know.......... Morley Bell 47G Jul 09 - Three of these in various conditions with engines and radio gear. All will require stripping down and intention is to build two of them, one standard and one with floats. Morley Bell UH-1D Jan 08 - Looked to be complete or near enough though in a very dirty condition which could mean that it is not a viable rebuild. Morley Bell UH-1D Bought a new kit Jul 09; good find! Morley Augusta 109 Apr 08 - Unfinished build project. Morley MXA Nov 07 - Bit of a dog but looks to be complete though will need a full restoration. Morley MX Ranger Nov 07 - Looks complete but put into long term storage before carrying out a full inspection to confirm. Morley Lynx (MXA) July 09 - New body kit bought from E-bay so a set of MXA mechanics has been put to one side for the build. Morley MXB Mar 08 - Looks in full running order though will require a full inspection. Morley MXB Bought in Jun 08 and stripped down for future rebuild. Morley MXB New kit bought Feb 09. Morley Tow Cobra (MXB) Jul 09 - American after market 'hang on' body for the Morley MXA-B. Complete but no instructions though it should be possible to work out how everything fits; including the high level tail rotor. Not seen this one before and only have the one mention of it as per the advert I took from a US Heli magazine of that era...... Morley Maverick Jul 09 - Two of these with one nearing completion of a rebuild. Morley Maverick XR Jul 09 - Two of these with one nearing completion of a rebuild. Morley F1-60 Carbon Bought in Jul 09 and looked complete but was stripped down so awaiting a full rebuild. Morley F1-60 Carbon Max Bought in Feb 10 and not immediately recognised until received in the post. put into storage pending time to fully check over.
