does anybody know of a website to get some good scale fuselage's for a 450 size heli?
i'm not sure if i'll go that direction or not, but i would like to turn one of my heli's into a mini scale. just something i'm looking into.
thanx in advance guys ;D

ohh i think i like that blackhawk one, the elevated tail might prove to be a challenge(i like that).
i like the airwolf to, but they seem to be really common. HMMM...
not only kits, but is there... maybe a plce to get plans to make your own fuselage also?

Careful with the elevated tail on a fusalage. All tail heights are not exactly the same.
What Darth does is installs a seperate tail motor into the plastic fusalage and omits the boom which realy sucks In my opinion.

Here's one site; helihobby.com/html/fuselage.htmlThis one is not a 450 size, but this guy's (Len Mount) fusalages are pretty incredible. On his site he shows you how to make them from fiberglass. |

Here's Len Mounts own web site. He gives you a brief summary of how he builds these things. He has got to have a lot of patience and definately has a lot of talent. The fine detail of the interiors is just amazing. www.lenmountscalehelicopters.co.uk/index.html |
