Hi Matt,

Sounds like good news for Huey/Vietnam enthusiasts and Aussie modellers in general.

I did a quick search but found nothing. If you come across something, make sure to alert the staff at Aeroscale so they can write up a news article.

Welcome to the KitMaker Network Brian!

I suggest you post your question on Aeroscale, under the Rotary section.

Good luck,

Chas

I bought the Heuy Frog Gunship, UH-1C i think, that had all the weapons in it, including the mini guns and the rocket pads. The door gunners twin M-60's i have got from the Dragon Helicopter Crew (times 4) with a little surgery will look the part.

hi guys just a quick one to say i am working on a set of rotors in resin for both dragon uh1delta-hotal and academy hu1charlie back to bravo. the bravo will have a new tail section, rotor asm and blades plus gun set for either set up. same goes for guns on uh1delta-hotal,plus a few other problems fixed.as the blades in both kits are wrong, too short on the academy kit and too wide on the dragon kit. am also going to have a go at the extra fuel pod on the early bravo's when here at fairbourn early on in the nam war. just so "other" opertunitys are met as well. ie the navy bravo model. cheers

Hi Jason ,
good to read that , will you be doing the full weapons set for the bushranger gunship ? When do you expect them to be available ?.
