Any pics yet I was planning on mounting my weapons this weekend but, think I might wait to see what you come up with. Never gave them a second thought and was just going to put them on. I have seen people make missile launchers for under the fuse. I'd like to get ahold of a set of those.

Finally completed my custom weapons for my Airwolf. Check it out and let me know your thoughts. These are the stock plastic weapons that came with the kit. Here are my custom metal ones that will be used. First, a few wood pieces was cut to be used for mounting of the metal guns. Also, added a metal sleeve replacing the plastic one. Guns installed with a couple of wood screws to the wooden blocks. Here is another view from the back. This is what it looks like with the cap installed. ....and another view. Fully completed! Stay tune for more as the mech. will be going into the fuse shortly.

Way cool ! Dr Evil. Are you gonna blue the weapons too? I think the silver metal is awesome. Thanks Doc, I probably won't be heating up the guns and making them blue. I kinda like them the way they are now but I may add a few small details to those wooden mounting block though. Maybe alittle something to make em look more machine like or something. Also the rocket launcher is still in the back burner and may be something I may add. The only other thing I would love to do is add the nav. lights in before stuffing the mech in it.....but we'll see.

Ok now you've inspired me! I'm going to wait on mounting my stock plastic guns. I do have access to a full machine shop. Just need some aluminum bar stock and some imagination. Your guns look great. I'll be patiently waiting for you to install the mechanics and see how your heli mounts.

Ya Drew she is really coming together! What did you use for the weapons? Love It Chris, sorry didn't realize you had a question for me on here. Anyways....the material I used was just some basic alum. tubings for the top 2 guns and for the bigger gun on the bottom was a couple of alum. spacers held together with a headless bolt. The longer piece you see is an alum. value extender for a bicycle.
