    I think I'll be getting this one. I love this helo design. I also have all the other planes that Area 51 have done and they are pretty nice.

    Well excuse me not to look past the title of that thread while using the search function: "RAH-66 Comanche in development".

    Had a bad day?

    Gentlemen, life is too short to be bothered by the little things. Can we reacquire the new release from Area51 as a point of focus?

    It's really nice to see these sorts of projects come to fruition, it's a slick looking helo.

    I have no idea how it should fly-but as it can do loopings i guess the FDE is easy.Other thrn this stunning exterior,medium interior,several types

    I bought as it was missing in my Helo collection

    They need to hire Roland to take the promotional screenshots of this helo. Going by what is shown on the purchase page I never would have bought it even at the reasonable listed price.

    Yes I agree - just buying now thanks to some clear screenshots from Roland.

    Very early start on Desert scheme (don't judge the product by this image!!).

    I have to say that this product is exceptionally good. The texturing even in the VC is of good quality. It very good on FPS and is stable in flight and hover. With exceptional visiablity from the VC is great to tour in! But can be rolled and looped as you would expect for a combat chopper.

    Nice job on the paints. Had a chance to see this thing first hand back in 04, and it was actually smaller in person than expected. Just wish A51 would update their gauges, they use the same in all helo models. It works I guess, no documentation on the real stuff anyway.

    Note that as the pilots are not part of the paint kit I have not been able to keep all the detail of the flightsuits. Perhaps a more skilled repainter will be able to do it.

    Hi. Im working on this fictional NASA repaint but getting bored. Does anyone want it? If so I will finish it!

    I will take the dirt off and try to get the stripe to follow the contour of the fuselarge.

    Hello Barnes,<o></o>
    <o></o>
    A NASA Comanche is not really my thing, to be honest (hopefully I am the only one), but would you perhaps consider some sort of ‘polar’ skin?

    Hi stickshaker - I understand and yes - do you want to show me an image of another make of chopper with the plar look that I should base it on for you?
