I finally took the time to figure out how to move a picture onto a post....
This is my Benzin Hughes...
Not a "scale" paint job, but I like it..... Now look at the heli!!!! :glasses2:

Is there a heli in that first photo? :shock:
Seriously, I saw that photo in a mag recently. Nice heli !!

Thank you Rob....
It was a lot of work, but when it is in the air, you can't help but think, now that looks good!!!
Guess you can tell that I like the scale units..... thanks again, Stan :smokin:

Yep, Stan, I am partial to scale models myself..... although I am enjoying learning to "flip and flop" my heli. I heard it said the other day, I am about a 1.5D'er instead of a 3D'er. hehehee :wink:
Your model looks great. I have a Airwolf that I am enjoying. She has about 4 flights on her so far and is flying great.

Thanks guys for the compliments.... I do appreciate the kind words...
I have another one in the works right now.. it is the Vario Big Jet Ranger, and that one will also have the Benzin mechanics in it..... and then I will be short one Pod and Boomer!!! Might have to start looking for another one... they fly great both ways....
I sure would like to see som in flight shots of the Airwolf... I don't think you can ever get tired of looking at one of them.... just a clean looking machine....(does that sound like a new project getting ready??? :D )
As far as the 3D goes.... I am probably about in the same boat as you... :arggg: but I have a lot of fun as long as I am flying..... :glasses2:

That is what this great hobby is all about..... it should be fun !
I don't have a video camera, but my gallery has some Wolf shots in it. I keep thinking one of my flying buddies will bring his video camera out and get some action of the Wolf, but so far we haven't hooked up to do it. I will get Will to post it here when I do.
Enjoy your new Jet Ranger project, sounds GREAT !
