    Cool, looks good.
    Out of interest, as I think I only ever made one heli, as a kid back in the day, but how do you get the realistic rotor "droop"?
    Do you just bend them manually or apply a little heat or put them in some sort of former or something else?
    Cheers

        Great job Peter, looks like it's just come out of maintenance.
