I don't agree. Considering last year, it is maybe, but I can't call it extraordinarily good. Just look at the sets available in 1995,1996 and even 1997, so you might see my point. 1995: 8812 Aero Hawk I ( helicopter) 8816 Off Road Rambler (small (...) (25 years ago, 20-Sep-99, to lugnet.build)

Hydraulic and pneumatic systems work differently. In the first one, your working fluid is an incompressible one (liquid oil, generally) so you have the full control of the stroke length of any piston.But in the case of pneumatics, the working fluid (...) (25 years ago, 20-Sep-99, to lugnet.build)
