Helicopters are not normally thing but here we have my recently completed Rega Helo built OOB. The reason behind the build came about after a 2014 visit to see the Swiss Air Show at Axalp. Wildgarst was our target for viewing the show but unfortunately the show was a no-go, so down we came. Well, I made it up no trouble but down was a different matter, and legs started to cave in a third of the way down. Needless to say, my fellow enthusiasts gave me lots of support with 'Rega'...and here we are. As I said, this was built OOB. Some parts didn't particularly fit well, mainly the glazing. I used the Revell red as suggested but it wasn't a good match, . No problems with the decals. BUT, when I tried to remove the Maskol from the front glazing , it was coming off in bits and seemed to be taken chunks out of the glazing! It transpires that Maskol has an ammonia base and it 'attacked' the Clear polish I'd dipped the glazing in! After about 5 weeks, Revell kindly supplied not just the requested parts but the glazing sprue . The damaged glazing was levered off with little damage and the new bits fitted and paintwork touched up. Job done.
