Another AH-1 cobra Build

Looking great...

Nice work IMO!

[Airwolfie]

Thanks Zee! Hopefully it will all come together nicely!

[Airwolfie]

A lot of sanding and filling, and painting, and more sanding, I finally mamged to get the FLIR together!!

Stuck it on my makeshift "FLIR tester"............





And then tried it out!!!!
Here's a short video!!!!

I then fitted a base to the FLIR and test fitted it to the fuselage( took some sanding and cutting to do, but it wasn't far off!!)

I have reported you to the MODS as you only throw negative comments! Too heavy this, too heavy that, it's not very nice you know, it really cuts deep.....................DEEP. Bye bye!!!


Lol only kidding matey! Glad you getting the 12ch, now I can make it even heavier!!! MUhahahahahaaaaaa!!!

A nut and bolt, some neodium magnets, a bit of styrene, a ballbearing, ply and a lot of headscratching, I came up with this........











And a short video...........

[Airwolfie]

Didn't do a lot, just mounted the FLIR to the heli..................

[Airwolfie]

Glassed the nose, sanded and filled the rest of the fuse, and then I chucked a coat of primer on it....
