    Built to order

    That looks enormous... Surely it can't be 1/6?

    And what is Jack Bauer doing with a model heli?

        I am interested in a vario EC135 in either turbine or electric but dont have the time to put into building it.

        Any ideas anyone?
        I dont know if any one has already mentioned him, but Coolice on here builds and sets up helis, and has experience of turbine power. Give him a call he is a first class guy who knows most helis.

          Yeah its 1/6th they are bloody massive!! The 1/4 scale you need a lwb van to get it in!

                Not had a problem in 6 years nearly on spekky. Maybe I am just lucky or there is a bigger ratio of units out there. Hmmm

                      Really looks way too big to be 1/6 Kev, think it must be 1/4?

                        Well I did initially think that, but his words were "here is my new RC heli project a 1/6th scale Vario"

                          Well the real EC-135 is 10.2m long (fuselage) so at 1/6 scale would be 1.7m from nose to tail.... Or roughly the height of a typical person ish

                          At 1/4 scale it would be 2.55m nose to tail, which looks more like that picture... Unless of course he's a hobbit.

                          I would say its a typo or he is mistaken... That's way bigger than 1/6.

                              the vario nitro, gasser, ec135 is 1/6 scale
                              this includes the smaller turbine which uses the nitro/gasser body shell

                              that big one is defo a 1/4 scale
                              it is a typo from somewhere saying it's the 1/6 scale
