Vintage RC Helicopters - Morley MXA
Morley MXA (1986)
As can be seen in the pre release note from 1984 the original designation was to be M.A.D. i.e. Morley Aerobatic Devise. This could have been a good marketing name though equally it could have backfired if the model was not received well, prudence was therefore exercised and the model became the MXA. The models gestation period was somewhat extended though mention is made of production problems at the time of the note and as noted for other models around that time, pressure in supplying the current models caused delays. This was Morley's first specific pod and boom trainer though somewhat complicated considering the target audience and the introduction the previous year of the Hirobo Shuttle (ARTF) which was to become the 'benchmark' as far as trainer helicopters were concerned.
