Cubs, That modification is called the BLR Fast Fin, it helps the tail rotor to be more efficient and create much control to the aircraft, it also helps eliminate the LTR effectiveness. Rod.

Ok guys, heres the first progress of the build. I have encountered various issues with the kit, the first one being this nasty moulding line that runs through the whole main lower fuselage section, i just had to eliminate it and redo the inspection panels that were lost during the sanding process. Hope you all enjoy. Rod.

Hi everyone, this is my next project, a Bell UH-1V from the Georgia Army National Guard. I will represent UH-1V 71-20255 from the 148th Medical Company AA GA-ARNG ca.2003-4. For the model i will use the Kitty Hawk UH-1D 1/48 kit, Werner Wings sets, Eduard photoetch, and Fireball Modelworks decals, and the rest will be scratch including the medevac interior. The model will be a tribute to all the Pilots and Crew Chiefs of the GA-ARNG that worked with the mighty Huey. This is the bird i will build: Hope you all enjoy and lets start this beauty! Rod.

Kitty Hawk 1/48 UH-1H WIP (Update 6/29)
salvador001 replied to JesusNut's topic in Helicopter Modeling
Thats pretty weird, i have used the mr surfacer 1500 for a long time and the thing sticks like a rock. Have you cleaned up the surface first? It could have some oil that does not let the surfacer stick in. The black surfacer would look great as a primer to create shadow and color blending before you apply the Dark Gull Gray. Rod. -
Looks like the real thing. Awesome work!! Rod.

Wow that was fast, great looking Agusta 212. Rod. -
That antenna near the upper wire strike looks to be an L2MUM, that enables the aircraft to manage and receive information from a drone. Rod.
