Thank you for taking the time to put together a review of what’s in the box on this bird Grant. Looks like there’s a fair amount of detail in this kit and the fact that it’s got the Lycoming turbine engine in the kit is a definite plus. I wished they’d include a larger sheet of PE but I guess that’s what the aftermarket world is for. lol
I have the 1/48 Kitty Hawk D model in the stash and I’m really surprised I haven’t built it yet as I was a crewcheif on H models for 8 years back in the 80’s/ 90’s. I’ll be looking forward to seeing you build this one bud.

I think it’s pretty good what is offered in the box, the inclusion of a mask set which seems to be the norm with Trumpeter and Hobby Boss now is most welcome. The AM guys will be all over it I would imagine for those who want to up the details. I think I will be building this soon, I need to get one of the few I am building at the moment done and will start it.:+1:

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Had no idea that Trumpeter had a Huey.

They are releasing the UH-1Y soon, I was hoping for the D.

I’ll be looking for the D/H model to come out. I’m really curious to see how realistic the main rotorhead will be. The Dragon 1/35th scale Huey needed a lot of scratch building to make it look good
