I always wanted my own helicopter (now i have one)

[Rodders154]

Ever since I was a lad I always wanted a jetranger and now I finally have one.

I made this to tryout making my own decals from scratch. I scanned in the logo from my business card and then using my colour laser (thrown out in a skip) I printed them out and printed a custom reg (Rodney Stewart Greenway) and bobs your uncle.

I'm happy if anybody does have an italeri or Esci 1/48 scale Jet ranger they don't want I have beer tokens

That's cute! Is it the Italeri kit?

[Rodders154]

Hi Jessica, Yes and No is the answer to your question.

It is the ESCI kit but the Italeri is the same mould. Glad you like it this was a fun build. My friend made up the logo to look like me. Glasses widows peak hair and a slightly overweight body. Its good to have a graphics artist as a friend.

I am on the lookout for another one. I have the Fujumi and the Heller but the ESCI/Italeri is the one I prefer

Just love Jetrangers

I love Jetrangers too !

My first flight was in one at Swinderby airshow and boy did the pilot

( a rather elderly looking man )throw it about. Saw my first lightning

shortly afterwards. Love them aswell.

Great job and what a cool idea
