I always call this a tadpole ...


Joke aside, nice and clean build. Unique subject, rarely seen it build, but when I do see one, it is always a good build.


May I ask, is it on purpose, that one of the rotor blade is in yellow?

The one yellow blade makes it more visable when spinning if you look on our yellow seakings thy also have that one yellow blade try find a you tube clip of one and you will see how it helps

A lovely model!!! A very sadly missed aircraft in my opinion.

Nice one Peter. When I'm out in the hills I've always found the yellow chopper to be a reassuring sight (never had to use one). It's always been Sea Kings in my time, though now they have those new (Bristow?) ones that aren't even yellow.
