    Is it the Blade 130S? If you can fly in "Agility" mode, and remember there's no panic button, probably. But it's a bigger aircraft and you might want to go with a 400 class helo on a sim for practice.

    I was a big fan of Airwolf when I was younger so that might be a steal.

    I might have to get the Huey and recreate the scene from apocalypse now.

    LOL, That is a very nice list. If they were to do a CH-47 I would do it up in my old unit colors .

    That would be awesome! Especially a 160th MH-47. I’ve got a long list of Helis I’d love to see Roban produce. I think a big Superscale Chinook or CH-53 would be an instant hit. Same for an OH-58D, AH-1Z (should be a fairly easy change to their W molds), SH-3 Sea King, and of course a correct UH-1H, and OH-6.

    What would be a great promotional and kill two birds with one stone would be to get everyone at Motion who can fly a helo to test a bunch of the Hueys at the same time and have like the scene in
    "Apocalypse Now" BTW, A CH-47 would be nice(rode in one while I was in the Navy) and a Sea King with a mini winch, hook, and "space capsule" to pick up.:)

    Yes and technically speaking, you could take the PNP system we are using in the 450's and apply it to a larger heli too.

    They are pretty cool for sure. The fuselages are not flimsy plastic jobs. They are actually fiberglass. The Agusta and Air Wolf even have retracts which are a nice feature in heli's this size.

    This is GREAT. Kind of got turned off of looking at the helis here because there were only three choices, the XK toys, Blade, and Roban. I've got several of the Blades but wanted a scale heli, but the Robans are WAY
    out of my pocketbook and the only thing else I could find was expensive Chinese toys. Now it's just a matter of time before they start selling. I hope they placed a BIG order on the Airwolf, because those will fly out the door.
