Very nice indeed. You need a big van now.

Wow what a pair! Who produces(d) the Wessex? Looks a fine model and will be very interested to see it flying, what donor helicopter will you be using?

Sorry about all the questions😉

ask away dude gord knows who built it ? It's solid but not over heavy . I recon I'll drop in a Rex 550 as the previous owner , but will work on the tail as it never worked for him , used to shake a lot I recall . Used to watch these at air shows and am pleased to have them in the hanger

Flipping gorgeous both of them! So Envious. Luv ‘em both.
I have REX 500 EC135 and Agusta and Airwolf, and a 550 Airwolf, and they all have weak tails – not shaking, but just weak if I go hard on the pitch (BeastX).
Don’t know whether it’s because the tail is shrouded by the fus or what?
I would have thought the extra mass / drag of the fus would help in strong pitch changes, not hinder TBH????

that looks a very nice heli
on the tail i'd try a 4 blade unit if possible as it should help the tail power
my graupner agusta 109 has a large body area and a very poor tail on 2 blades and i can't increase the length as it will hit the fin
