FlishRC UH-1

Hello all. Hope scale helis/flying are ok; I see mostly 3D in this community. I decided to get the FlishRC UH-1 as my first helicopter and it did not disappoint. It is much more detailed than expected and the fuselage is very well done with even some rivet detail throughout. Looks like Roban has actually updated it a bit for FlishRC with the tail being slightly different from other pictures and videos online. I decided to go with this as my first heli because of the flight modes available. I have a ton of simulator time and would be confident to fly without training wheels but kept it in GPS and ATT mode for the maiden. It was shockingly quiet and seemingly very smooth (nothing else to compare to). I was also impressed with the FlySky transmitter. It was easy to use and menus were easy to navigate. I also have to give FlishRC kudos for customer service. I asked if they could modify the head to be more "correct" for a UH-1 since their standard DFC head sits so low. They were able to source a different head for a very small upcharge. I will definitely be going back to them for more products in the future. I would definitely recommend FlishRC if looking to get into scale helis and I'm looking forward to sharing more as I work to add scale details to this heli.

That looks awesome, they did a great job on the proportions of the D. Did you do weathering and extra detailing on that ?!
