Um... I think I've posted this in the right section.
There have been some awesome Whirlybird builds recently which makes me want to build a few kits myself.
This made me wonder if anyone else fancies some form of Helicopter GB? It might make a change from the WWII stuff - lots of great kits and options.
Say start Aug/Sept and run for 6 months? Any kit/Scale as long as it's a rotary winged aircraft. Started builds allowed up to say - 50%?
Cheers

go for it!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I like it. I have a few air beaters to build for this. Let's get it going.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: Whirlybird GB?
Yeah, why not. I have a Hasegawa Hind A that need to be build. Or maybe my Cierva Autogiro (that would count as a Whirlybird, wouldn't it?)

That would indeed count Borg - Autogiro's are cool.BorgR3mc0 wrote:Yeah, why not. I have a Hasegawa Hind A that need to be build. Or maybe my Cierva Autogiro (that would count as a Whirlybird, wouldn't it?)
So it looks like there's a little bit of interest in this - I could set something up when I get back from my Holiday next month.

Re: Whirlybird GB?
Bump! So - are we still up for this?
Anymore takers?

So is this a 'go' yet? I have a couple different helicopters I can do.
