Rotorman Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) Finally on its feet. Its tail heavy alright. Edited April 18, 2021 by Rotorman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
midnightprowler Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Looking great. Should lose some tail heaviness once the forward cockpit is in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Back on the H.34. Worked on the tailwheel and the tail rotor shaft. i need to add details inside the tail since some of it might be seen through the openings. the lack of instructions on where to put the parts for gluing in some area are tricky to say the least. I am changing this version to a Seabat sub hunting helicopter, so the Huskie is no longer part of the build. Edited April 27, 2021 by Rotorman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) Since there is so much negative space inside the tailboom i added the ribs. I am also working on the tail rotor 45 degree gearbox. Very little will be seen once the mesh are added but i believe it is necessary to add the details. Edited May 3, 2021 by Rotorman Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rotorman Posted May 5, 2021 Author Share Posted May 5, 2021 (edited) It appears someone else is working on the H.34 nose as well. I dont know what scale and for what kit but the h.34 is getting some interest for sure. This look like an open cowling version. Edited May 5, 2021 by Rotorman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted May 5, 2021 Author Share Posted May 5, 2021 I guess this company is also doing cockpit and detailing transmission just like mine. https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/jj121/heloman2008/20210505_094540.jpg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rotorman Posted May 6, 2021 Author Share Posted May 6, 2021 (edited) The interior ribs took a while to finish. Will add more details. Anyone has photos of the windows from the inside. I see some helos without glass. I saw an German h.34 with a side door as well as cabin sliding door. Did US h.34s had that door too?

HeavyArty Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Looking good. Why did you not go with the kit longerons and stringers? They look pretty nice to me. Also, as far as I have seen, US versions only had the sliding door on the starboard side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
