You've done a great job here Reinard, I'm most impressed that the attitude
of both rotors is adjustable and I love the folding tailplane.  You

Two questions:

I couldn't see any real close up of how the main rotor is adjusted, it looks

it and the blades, does this rotate to alter the pitch?

This is a pretty big model, how did you decide what scale you would use?

Excellent stuff
