!/32 Lynx rotor blades

[Rodders154]

The Revell 1/32 lynx is a great kit except for the main blades which bend down when on the real thing they are rigid.

Does anyone know of anyone does after market one? I was thinking of drilling them out and using a metal rod to stop them drooping.

I used brass tube when doing the Rotordyne but this is not an option on this kit.

Any help greatly appriciated

I've read a build thread recently (not on the site) but the guy straightened 1/35 Chinook blades by placing them in hot water for around 5 mins, then he lay them on a flat surface with a piece of ply board, looked like 12 ply, and finally added weight, a lot of weight.

He left this for a couple of days before returning to it.

Black Ops models do have brass wire inlays in to help maintain regidity on their 1/35 AH-6 Little Bird conversions, works really well.

Good luck.
