Having played-around with similar super-regen 27MHz model-radios in the past I will be intrugued to see the circuit.

My brother was always the 'aivionics' side, building crazy Nitromethane-fuelled pulse-jet stuff; I did the radios, just at the time when transistors were becoming affordable; though an OC170 was expensive it didn't have a fragile filament that failed-when-you-crashed! I remember building a transmitter using a 6J6 double-triode valve that I powered from a car-battery and a vibrator-unit from some long-dead car-radio: it produced enough RF on 27MHz [plus or minus a Megahertz or so] to light a 12-volt 5-watt car sidelight bulb. Then we moved on to resonant-reeds, pot-cores and 'discriminators' that got us proportional control by a joystick that wiggled a bit of ferrite-rod into the middle of an audio-frequency coil excited by an OC72]
