LSP_Kevin Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 That looks great! I've just moved it here to the RFI forum, where it more properly belongs. May I publish it on the website? Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero77 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Great helo, and gorgeous scheme. I've taken mine out of its box some months ago, but i've only built a few parts. It looks good, but i'm 95% away from finish. Is the blades droop from the kit parts? It seems to me that they were straight and quite stiff.

drhornii Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 One photo shows the kit droop and I flattened them out to match the actual aircraft Is the blades droop from the kit parts?

Joel_W Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Now that's one impressive 'copter for sure. Your USCG HH-65C with the bright Orange/Red paint scheme certainly stands out, and grabs one eye. Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Driver Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Very impressive! It made me a bit sad though. Unfortunately 5 days ago a guy that I knew died in very similar helo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
