Yep... Thats a Gorham Model Products CRICKET ! its a 20 sized fixed pitch machine. That was the first heli I ever saw actually fly forward instead of just trying to hover. I actually was amazed when the guy flying it actually did a loop with it.

The Schluter line back than was pretty much the company of choice back then. There were alot of blossoming companies coming out with helis. They almost all looked the same with aluminum frames, and belt/cone starts. I kind of like the retro heli, It reminds me of my RC infantdom. Very cool.

Some info HERE
