SupraStar 3000 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Finally finished my latest toy. Its another helicopter , but I've customised and hand painted the fuselage myself, top spec electronics and carbon parts. This in the new Swiss army A109 with camo livery. Taken me 6 weeks to build and paint from reference photos. The retractable landing gear was a real PITA to make work.

Carl Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I bought a Thunder Tiger V2 Raptor kit that I need to build sometime. Still in its box with an OS engine and muffler. All I need is some servos to complete kit. Was thinking of selling it as Im not sure ill build it now untill next year but everytime I see a heli video, it makes me want to go start building.
