Here's a HUGHES 500 fuselage (...and orginaly from RCA) salvaged from a bad crash. It was busted us pretty good and had a broken boom, so the previous owner didn't want it....i enjoyed the body work and painting it up, later adding a few details, and it is now my everyday fun flyer! Attachments:

mrfastphil, unfortunately I will need you to take another photo with your name written or typed or whatever on a piece of paper placed next or onto your heli in order to be qualify. Not saying your doing this but anyone can just download a pic. off the net and enter the contest.

I also like the other onces in the previous pics. as well, didn't think they made fuse for the 120 size...LOL. Are you planning to enter those Apaches in the contest. They really do look awesome!

Hi: Dr. Evil Thank you, The scale Blade 120 SR's are built around plastic models i got from wal-mart and Michaels Dept. store. They are a little on the heavy side but fly Great. It takes about a day or two to build one up. My only problem is: Every time i keep using my son's Blade 120 SR to make a scale heli, I have to go on line and buy him a replacement Blade 120. I just finished a UH-60 Seahawk today on his replaced Blade 120 SR ( i got to stop ) dose anyone have a Blade 120 SR out there? I need to replace another one. The Apache's are a little under 8 feet, 34 to 40 pounds, Elect powerd, moves and acts like the real one. If you goto indyhelis.com you can see all the other Apaches i finshed out for them. I would have liked to put one of the Apache's in the contest but i diden't have time to take photos with my name next to it like the rules say. I see other helis entered into the contest and i do have to say, They look OUTSTANDING... Great job guys.... wayne. Attachments:
