Early helo's
Posted by mikepowers on Thursday, July 7, 2005 11:20 AM
Hello fella's, anyone out ther know of any kits that would be available in 48th scale of early helos? Pre 1950? The end of WW2 the helo was a new technology and I would like to get some kits of these early birds. Any info would be grand. Thanks Smile [:)]

I know somebody is doing a R-4, but I don't remember who. I have the kit at home, but I'm at work right now.
Edit: Special Hobby makes the R-4 and it is 1/48th

A company called Huma Model puts out a German WWII helo called the Flettner Fl 282 in 1/48th. Saw it at a local hobby shop just the other day.
