800 Airwolf overhaul
Chapter 5 of 5
Airframe inspection
Jan 27, 2023
Now the mechanics have been removed, the airframe inspection begins. Found some stress cracks in some of the paint and a door window glue deteriorated. Over all the frame itself is in great shape.

VERY nice post Chris !!
Thanks for sharing this, Chris! 🤘🏼
Convenience matters!
In general, what is the most difficult thing about having an "800-size" "Airwolf"?? I'm very, very badly wanting to get one (and even get the same size in a "Redwolf" paint livery (as seen in the Airwolf episode, "Airwolf II") I'd also like to know if Vario would also build a JetRanger like the one that Ernest Borgnine's character, Dominic Santini, had on the show? (This would, of course, be my very first foray into flying this size of RC helicopter as well)
The Roban models are decent as an on-ramp to even larger models. They don’t cost a fortune and they generally look good. Vario has a full selection of Bell models but they don’t have ARF’s like Roban other than a Robinson and a KA-32
That’s a really nice looking air wolf .
