been wanting to do a apache fuselage for the Rex 450se but, can't find any that i really like that well.

found a 1/18th scale BBI Ah-64 Apache model that looks like it would work but, I can't find any dimensions for the model.

I am thinking its going to be around 30 inches long but, not sure.

any idea's

IIRC, 1/18 is about right for the 400 size helis... The challenge will be the distance between the main mast and tail, and how the model matches to the TRex. Also the elevated tail, but that has been done.

I wish I could find some dimesnions for the model so I could get a rough idea. i just haven't been able to find any sizing for it.
