Introducing Turbulence D3
We are pleased to announce you our latest 90 size 3D model "Turbulence D3"
Hirobo spent much time developing and competing in F3C world, with many triumphs in last 20 year period. Unfortunately, our development and entry to the 3D world was slower than expected due to our emphasis and success in F3C side. Since 2007, we started a project to develop a machine dedicated for 3D competition. We won one of the most respected and
popular 3D competition, 3D Masters in 2007.
Like Eagle series is our top model for F3C, we will introduce "Turbulence" line to be our top machine for 3D. With cooperation from 2007 3D Masters champion Dominick Haegele and world level 3D pilots from around the world, we wanted to develop a machine with best performance. This new Turbulence D3 is aimed at competition or expert level 3D flight.
Our first target for this model was to develop a model with latest 3D design combined with affordable pricing, which could replace our Freya line. However, as development and testing went on, we felt if we wanted to sit on top of 3D world as we do for F3C, we should not make any compromise on performance.
There is no plan of replacing Freya line of products with Turbulence series. Turbulence will sit on top of our 3D line of products and we will keep Freya line as it is.
Turbulence D3 will have its first flight at XFC with 2007 3D Masters champion Dominick Haegele and then, return as defending champion to 3D masters 2008. His 2007 machine, with our inside codename "D1" machine, was a combination of plastic standard Freya and prototype 3D head. After our victory, we went on to developing a new frame and other parts. Further testing continued during winter with second generation machine, D2. We are at a final stage of development with third generation machine, D3.
This model is designed in Japan, made in Japan, with Japanese quality as usual, just like
any other Hirobo helicopters. We deeply appreciate many 3D pilots from US, from Europe, from elsewhere, for their inputs and extensive tests over a year.
At last we would like to appreciate our customers all over the world for your patience
