RAH-66 Comanche "rebuild"

Get that mean machine back in the air!!

It’s going to be beautiful (already is.)

Don't sell yourself short my friend. When we first met 8-9 years ago, I never imagined you would still be here after the less than "stellar" beginnings with your Comanche. Here's what I see and sure others see also. Your competitive drive kept you in the game which has made you the "competitor" and "modeler" you are today. Honestly, that is a bit scary. :)

You got this,

Very nice emergency fix on a beautiful bird! I have been looking for a Len Mount (or other) large RAH-66 ever since I saw Butch’s Comanche. I hope to find one some day - especially one that someone started, but lost interest in it (unlikely, I know! but like Powerball - someone’s gotta win eventually!) Nick with Red Lodge Helicopters said they found one in that state and they resurrected it to it’s inevitable glory. The photos are on line still, which surprised Nick. Anyway, great work!

If you have one, PM me! I’ll make it worth your while. In the meantime, I’ll keep try to keep building and improving my so far very rudimentary modeling skills. I sure appreciate all the work you guys put into these wonderfully cool machines. Your collective ingenuity and great skill are inspiring You know who you are!

Looking good my friend.

That’s cool, Evan! How did you do the black border?

i got dinged on this update.... not enough screws. just waite till the next version!!!!!

Looks much better with the additional screws.

As you know the full scale had a ton of screws. I do not think they make screws small enough to replicate the full scale. Ha. The small window between the pilot and co-pilot access windows had 52 screws to hole the window in place.

So we are “screwed”.

UIH

Not so fast. I was tagged for amount of screws as well.

I was the crew chief.

Back when I was a young buck.

We some cool MoFo's back in the day. Now I am just and OF. Ha

Great pic my Brother. Love the reflection in the water.

Perfect timing! I just posted two new Jeti courses (not that you need them, but I use my own videos to remind me of how to do stuff in the radio)!

did you want to attach the video?

Popsicle sticks to the rescue, way to innovate at the last minute.

The wind was quite strong at one point... So sad to hear that.

Yes it was. So sorry to hear about your damage. But what better time to upgrade than rebuild time.
