      Re: Built to order

      Ok folks. .... im going electric. So no more thoughts of turbines.

      I have been chatting to Kev on email and have several models which im considering, and these are:-

      Eurocopter EC135 (Cornwall air ambulance G-KRNW)
      Agusta A109 (Castle Air G-TELY)
      MBB BO105 (Cornwall air ambulance G-CDBS/D&C Police G-DCCH)
      MBB/Kawasaki BK117 (D&C Police G-DCPA)

      So for an electric model what is your opinions??

          For me Pete, I like the EC-135 and the BK-117 the most.

            Wuss!

            Cornwall air ambulance G-KRNW is the most striking IMO of your choices but you get more fun bits to stick on with military stuff...
            ..or go with a magnetometer set-up and you almost have training legs...

                  EC-135's are getting a bit ubiquitous, but then they do look awesome.

                    if you go for the 109 or the bo 105 have a look at the graupner models with the uni-mechanics with the electric comversion
                    or the new electric mechanics

                    the others to look at are the vario ones
                    john at vario uk will advise on the best vario mechanics for the electric model

                      A109 and BK117 but to be honest all of them would look great.
