Minicopter Maxi Joker 2

Can you still get spares for this? Just put it on my watch list.

I think so, you could ask Gerd via the minicopter site or on HF as he is often on the forum there.

I have seen the electric Maxi-Joker but that's the first one I have seen converted to petrol. They're very well made helis.

Time is running out so wont have time to make enquiries. Don't know whether to take the chance. Looks nice. Better than the Century Predator I was humming and harring about.....

Look what you've done to me Sheryl with your BMFA article.

Doh! I had a Predator SE with a 26cc PUH engine and sold the airframe a couple years ago when it started looking like parts might become hard to get. I'll ask on HF about the Maxi Joker, just for my own curiousity as well regarding support for older Minicopter helis.

--- Just got a reply from Gerd and he says yes most parts are still available, including canopies but the newer canopies are fibreglass instead of plastic.

There was a nitro Joker but I think the Maxi Joker was only electric.
