Rasczak Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Looking good SSgtd. I've been wanting to buy that kit and you have given me enough reason to. Can you move the blades back and fold the tail for after built or is it only one position that it can be made in? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SSgtd6152 Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 No, ya can not fold after built, you need to think befor you build it. It was not hard for me, Fly baby Fly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VG 33 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Hello It's been a very well done kit so far ! I love these big helicopters. But I think you've got a lot of place at home to store it. Patrick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LemonJello Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 You can almost hear those big blades beating the air and smell the exhaust! No better sound to a grunt's ears than to hear a -53 or a -46 coming into the LZ to take you home (back in my young and foolish days as an 0311). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
