HIROBO SA315 Lama

Lama - XRB-SR (2004)

  Catalogue photo

Smaller version brought out with Contra-rotating blades and originally powered through an umbilical cord which limited its use to basic hovering and gentle manoeuvres. 

In 2005 the V2 model was brought out which upgraded to radio control and capable of full unrestricted 'free' flight indoors and in benign conditions outdoors.

As can be seen for version 2 the XRB mechanics had a number of different bodies.
