Be nice if Dragon sold the mini-guns and mounts separately...
I've got their H model Huey --- might pick this one up if the price is right.
Much Aloha,

Hi Johnny. Check out the full News Thread on it at Aeroscale for more details. In short, it isn't really that accurate as a USMC UH-1N OOB. It will still take quite a bit to fix it.
Cobra Company has them as their XM93 gun system.
Still great that is is available again though.

As always, many thanks, Gino! That's a real bummer that the kit is not that accurate... Truth be told, if the price were right, I'd still be tempted --- Huey's are really tough to resist (as I know you know all too well).
I'll be sure to take a look at that link.
I hope that life is good and your current posting is agreeing with ya and that life is good.
Take it easy, amigo.
Regards and Much Aloha,
Johnny B.
