Hey folks,
won last weekend on an auction 2 of this Helicopters. This will be my first Helo and i want to convert it to an UH-1C. So as i heard the Rotorhead is a B-model and the tail is incorrect, too.
Does anyone can give me help for the correction and maybe references.
greets

Sorry, there are no correction sets in that scale fo rit. It is pretty lacking on detail on th einterior too. Unless you just have to have a 1/24 scale UH-1C, I wouldn't worry about correcting it. The better option is to get a 1/35 scale Academy C model. They are great kits and full of accurate details.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Hello Gino,
after checking and getting the advices, i will built it as a B-Model. ifound a nice camo sheme from the 117th AHC. So now is the question : How it was armed, with 2.75 inch rocktes and minguns or how ?

I don't know exactly what the normal load for that particular helo was. Here is the approved loads for UH-1B and UH-1Cs though.
Good luck.
