Hawkwrench Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 How did you cut the one blade away from the rotor hub? Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyGT500 Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Cut where the hub ended and totaly rebuild the end of the blades using 1mm pvc sheet And the main rotor is 80% scratch-build using reference photos For this project you must use 100% of your scratch-build skills, my friend Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Every detail looks better then the last. The front doors equal the back doors, and those rotor blades are coming along quite nicely. Loving the carpeting, as I'm just not use to seeing it done in model form. Joel ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClumsyDude Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Looks terrific as always Chavdar. Very crisp work. Jim ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyGT500 Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Ha ha ha thanks Joel, well our 206s are used for training and VIP also, so the carpet is one of important details and at the real Bells. Thank you Jim I give my best to close that project to 90-99% accuracy Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiZac Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 This is the best JetRanger model I've ever seen, Chavdar. The extra work you're putting in is really paying off! The seats, the various switches and knobs, the various meshes...wow! Like others when I got an IMC model, and later the Revell, I was very disappointed at how inaccurate the model is for a B3. My dad used to work with one and I've tried to build it a few times but there's just nothing out there unless you're willing and able to do the extra work. I'm glad you're back at work on this. It will make a spectacular model! sandokan and ShelbyGT500 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyGT500 Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 No problem Maru Continue with some dry fitting of three parts of the interior - and no issues by now Also scratch headphones for pilots, but will need another two for the backstage Cheers friends Starfighter, Out2gtcha, HerculesPA_2 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyGT500 Posted October 26, 2017 Author Share Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) Well, the interior is fixed to the one half of the fuselage and needed some polystirene pieces for sealing the gaps - veeeryyy old "kit" It is not large progress, but the good things happens tooo slowly Cheers friends Edited October 26, 2017 by ShelbyGT500 sandokan, jgrease, Anthony in NZ and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
