Hey guys I'd like share with you my first of many products that I plan to produce in the future.

First off here's a 1/35th main rotor transmission for the Italeri and Academy Blackhawk kits.

If in the past you had the chance to build one then you know that all you get in the kit is nothing but a thimble.

Now I will say that it's not all that accurate BUT it is close and looks tons better than the kit piece. I made up this part by looking over photos of the internet.

You'll notice that the bottom side is keyed to fit part A3 (photo)

I for one will always support people who show initiative and bring to the market items people have been asking for for ages.

Well done Joe and Justen.
