mark31 Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 Have this kit in the stash since kh stopt production. I whas in luck to find one iff you whant this kit now prepare to pay 3 times the price. Also i have some aftermarket for it. About the markings no idee yet. This will be another challenge because no color codes given for painting the intirior so google will save this. So here is the box In the box still all in the bags After market so far Thats it for now Mark 14
Peterpools Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 Mark Great choice for your next build and will be along for the journey 4
Bomber_County Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Looking forward to this, I saw the AM rotor built up somewhere, it’s beautiful in its own right………. 4
mark31 Posted January 12, 2023 Author Posted January 12, 2023 And of we go. Starting with cockpit floor and other parts the instructions call for a decal on the consol but i found the decals crap so lets try painting. Now im also going on the hunt for after market decals for this one. Mark 10
Peterpools Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Mark Nice work on the console and absolutely looks better then any flat decal 5
GazzaS Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Console lools good, Mark. The Muted colors look right. 5
Landlubber Mike Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 After seeing the ResKit rotors and other aftermarket a while back, I got a hankering to build a helicopter. Will be following this one for sure! 5
BlrwestSiR Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Nice start on the IP. That's a lot of AM for the kit. I guess it'll be all folded up. Not a bad idea since it'll take up less space. 5
CANicoll Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 Your detail painting really brings out the console - a pain to do but really nice job on it! 4
mark31 Posted January 13, 2023 Author Posted January 13, 2023 fighting with the crappy instructions and bad numbering off kitty hawk Made a few components and did a dry fit. Time to paint the parts Mark 9
Peterpools Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 Mark Nice progress and glad KH's instructions under control 5
Bomber_County Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Nice start Mark, why oh why do manufacturers screw up instructions. All they need to do is get five modellers to build the prototypes and amend where necessary and bam we are all happy….. 5
Peterpools Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Paul With you 100% - all it takes is a few pairs of fresh eyes to review the instructions and on a complicated kit, do a test build from them. 3
ScottsGT Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Well, it is Kitty Hawk. As Ernie has mentioned, there was a lot more going on behind the scenes than we know about that KH was not happy with. 4

DocRob Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 Somehow your heli skipped my attention Mark. Your cockpit looks absolutely great and I think it will be very visible and an eyecatcher in the end. Cheers Rob 4
Jackster Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 Excellent start Mark, this will be epic. Cheers Kev 3
