It seems to me the release isn't close though: the EDM phase hasn't happened yet apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radleigh Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Thanks guys for the replies.. this makes me very happy... at least there has been progress! My all time favourite helicopter, and I need one in 1/48th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ya-gabor Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 From Annetra here are some views of two production tools. Look forward to what comes out of this! Best regards Gabor 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ya-gabor Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Work is progressing as far as I can see. My Czech language knowledge is not that good (Zero in fact apart from Ahoj ) but it seems that here is the very first test shoot of the kit.

ya-gabor Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Some new photos of the first test shoots. The weldlines on strap-on side fuel tanks are made as they should be with raised lines. This is the small fuel tank with 3 braces. Obviously the real plastic in hands will be interesting and real test of the product but based on these photos it looks like there is a chance for optimism. I know what I will be building from it! Best regards Gabor 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stakor Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) "Nestíhám ani náhodou. na formách je odhadem 2 - 3 měsíce práce + dekály, návod, krabice. Budu rád když to budu mít po kupě v Mošoni." 2- 3 months, should be ready for Moson. Looking at the sprues we can expect Mi-14 soon, However Mi-8..... don't think so :((( This is interesting: "Malá - tedy 1/72 - bude taky. Ale bude vydána jako AMK, ne Annetra. Jen se mě prosím neptejte kdy, protože to ani v nejmenším netuším." Will we have it also in 1/72? Edited November 10, 2018 by stakor 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Well i still hope that early mi-8T has a chance. Cowl is separated, so i guess thats a positive thing, Tailrotor can be reversed even with minimal surgery if needed. Not sure if there are other noticeable changes....

marko Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 So, If they (or aftermarket company) do new cowling, its completely doable 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ya-gabor Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 The complete engine compartment is given as a separate part. It is not by accident! Annetra is a new player on the market and they will want to see the response to this kit. Based on this there are many options for the future! And even more . . . As to differences between Mi-8 (with TV-2-117 engine) and Mi-17 (as we know it in the West, In Russia it is Mi-8MT with TV-3-117 engine), there are many differences but with a brake down of parts like on this Annetra kit it is possible to make all sorts of different versions.

Radleigh Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 So glad it comes with the pylons, I wish HB put them in their kit... So very nearly bought the resin 1/48th Mi-8/17 at Telford but I resisted as I would prefer this kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Polish kit is excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has some fantastic details. But of course the price is also fantastic. So I had to resist and wait to see if anyone will do one in plastic at an affordable price. It is not exactly clear why the HB kit did not have the pylons in 72nd, they are permanent feature of the Hip. Except of course the P version, the VIP transport one. Even if the pylons were not fitted the firm itself was carried, or like in Afganistan often they had just two pylons instead of the normal 3.

Taking about pylons I don't see any UB-32A-24 or B8W-20 among test frames of Annetra kit.... (Maybe Eduard will make in 48?)
