sin Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Hi, Looking for 1/72 Sea King 6-blade tail rotor replacement kit to replace the Fujimi and Revell kit which contains only the 5-blade tail rotor. Any idea is there any manufacturer produce the 1/72 Sea King 6-blade tail rotor? Cheer Sin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heloman Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Have you tried Aeroclub in the UK, I think they may have one. If not Whirlybits in one of their conversion sets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeejeeZ Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) Have you tried Aeroclub in the UK, I think they may have one. If not Whirlybits in one of their conversion sets. Or you could see if someone has an unused Airfix or Fujimi- 6 blade tail rotor lying around. Or am I misreading your post and do you want something else than the Fujimi TR? I for sure had about a whole pile of 6 blade TR's but I just cannot find them now. I am quite sure that the Fujimi Sea Kings I built had a 6 blade TR included besides the 5 blade one. Don't know about the quality though. Good Luck! Gertjan Edited January 19, 2013 by GeejeeZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hajo L. Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) Some of the Revell Seaking-kits with german markings do have the 6-bladed rotor, even though it´s not used in the kit. It´s part of a sprue that contains parts needed for the modern MK.41-version, like the EAPS. http://www.modelingmadness.com/review/viet/spahrseakingpreview.htm Have a look at the first picture, the sprue on top left. So maybe contacting Revells departement X for a replacement rotor will be successful. HAJO Edited January 19, 2013 by Hajo L. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
