                        I am starting on my Academy 1/35 AH-60L DAP Blackhawk model. This is my first helicopter model, and of course I wanna do the best on it. My other model experiences involve about 12 aircraft and a few cars. I would just like tips/hints/whatever. Thanks in advance.

                        My advice is you can't do too much research and dry fit everything twice before gluing! Plan ahead on what detail you want to add or enhance and build each sub assembly like it was a model in it self. Most of all have "FUN"!

                        Take it easy, go slow, build in sub-assemblies.
