    1/18th King Tiger Project Scheduled to Start In August !!

    Finally I have something to show. I was all set up to start but my real work schedule kept on interrupting the start date. Of course I can not take credit for the build I contracted a 3-D printer to have the majority of the parts made because I just did not have the time. Here are the...

    How much are you guys pay for a Hind kit ?

    OK guys the Hind is my favorite helo and as far as I am concerned the holy grail when it come to helos. How much would you guys be willing to pay ? My guess would be about $550 for a FULL new kit. This is a big bird with big parts.
