Anyone built this kit?

Stumbled upon the 1/72 Zvedza (ZVD-7257) UH-1C kit today and wondered if it was worth a go.

Hello!

Since Zvezda works closely with Revell and Italeri, I thought: Probably an Italeri re-box. Checked it up on Scalemates and yes, it is a rebox of the Italeri Huey. Which means, in case of UH-1C, that you get the wrong rotor (narrow blades) and the tail boom is a bit too short. In other words this Huey will take some work - but that's life, most of the time the Huey didn't have luck with the model companies...

Hope it helps, have a nice day

Paweł

Thanks! Yes, seems like all Huey kits are a bit wonky in some way!
