Kamov KA-10

My next project. A mix of plastic and brass work. This is quite a small model - I think it may take awhile.

Looks interesting, do they supply a pilot, difficult to see on the photo?

This photo shows first the etched brass and how the rotor blades were on the left. The centre is the two halves separated. On the right are the two halves glued together.

So far not too bad - just time consuming.

Yeah. Got a bit of intricate bending to do. I've cut it out and now I'll sit and look at it for an hour or two before proceeding.

Rotor and other sub-assemblies done. Slow work.
