    PropBlurs for Helicopters

    Helicopter rotor blades: I presume you mean both tail and main. Both scales doable, "decent price" questionable. 1/48th is very large.

    I don't know accurate numbers, but I presume market for 1/72nd is at least 10x that for 1/48th helicopter models. Does anyone know where to find out that sales info?

    I am thinking of this product, and am compiling prototype measurement details for various helicopter rotors, and need rotor dia.'s, length of rotors, 'hub' details, pics and kit details.

    Also, several customers have send pics of 'on the ground' uses for PropBlurs, including landing, taking off, carrier warm ups, etc. A museum in Pearl Harbor has a diorama using them for a couple dozen planes, some on ground. see customer pics on my site

    Cheers.

      I will get some measurements of the blades in question, it's a twin blade Bell heli in 48th and the blade chord is quite wide.

      (yes, i did mean main and tail blades)

      Soon as i'm able, currently in the process of prepping for holidays.

      Cheers
