Ryan,
Someone beat me to building a stealth chopper! I may have a go at something like
this myself some time...
This is very cool! I may be missing some of the detail because black doesn't
photograph so well, but from what I can see, youve put a lot of work into this.
Normally I'd say it looks a little chunky, but knowing you've got a motor in
there, it all makes sense. Is the battery box inside the chopper as well?
Most of all I think, I like the landing gear, the fold-out weapons and the
pilots seats. The rotors could be extended alittle perhaps they don't look quite
long enough to be able to lift this up very well.
Thanks for sharing.
Magnus
