modelling minion Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 First off here is a link to a very useful site for those of us wishing to build a Canadian machine. http://cdnsarlab.blogspot.com/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 And a very good one for modellers of Japanese ones as it has pictures of nearly (if not) all of their aircraft from each of the services and civil ones too. http://dansa.minim.ne.jp/His-Civ-KV107-000-index.htm 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 A fantastic walkaround of a Canadian CH-113 can be found here; http://nabe3saviation.web.fc2.com/explanatione-fr.html Whilst there check out the rest of Akira Watanabe's site, his models are fantastic and there are some great pictures of both Japanese and other nationalities aircraft including KV-107's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be useful for other machines too, as I see for exemple pics of the underbelly searchlight that Fujimi forgot in its HH-46A box. From my point of view, it does look the same.

Jabba Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) Some pictures of CH-46s whilst I was at Ali Al Salem AB Kuwait in Marchish 2003 during OIF or Op telic as we brits know it. Edited March 10, 2019 by Jabba 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
128fiddler Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Nice references here, however, mostly if not only CH-46/CH-113 interiors. So my question is, to which should te interior of a KV-107 lean to? Was the 113 actually a 46 or more a 107? And how far is is a Hkp-4 in this? To me it looks like the 113 is closest related to it... or if anyone has a 107 interior, that would be awesome! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would depend which version of KV-107 you want to build as the three main versions all have different roles with the JASDF ones being primarily used for SAR with the JGSDF ones being troop transport and supply and the JMSDF ones being used for ASW and therefore having all the sonar equipment inside that is associated with that role.

128fiddler Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Hello, I found this walkaround section, which holds pictures of both a CH-46 and a BV-107 from Columbia Helicopters. Looks a rather nice source of reference for a couple of builds here. on a funny sidenote, don't read the 'www' path as it would make ipms holland gets red cheeks... Have fun! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudge Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I am still trying to find a decent image of the rotor head that shows roughly how to represent the hydraulic pipe work, which I believe actuates the blade fold. A picture from overhead, or maybe a drawing would be ideal. Also, Fujimi state black for the rotor head colour. Hard to tell from pictures, could be a dark grey? Thirdly, Fujimi state silver for the upper surface of the blades. This seems unlikely for US Navy and Marine Corps aircraft. I'm guessing just black or possibly a dark green? Any help appreciated 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help appreciated Struggled, very unsuccessfully, to find clear pictures from the rotor head from above myself as I wanted to add the pipe work to my build but it turned out I didn't need them for a KV-107 but unfortunately you do for a CH-46. I tend to agree with Fujimi that black is the right colour for the rotor head, though I disagree with them about the rotor blades as I believe them to be either grey or black depending on the particular aircraft as I have seen both in pictures.

Any help appreciated Looking at my pictures above of Marine CH-46s the blades and rotor heads do appear to be black. I too have been looking for rotor head pictures be have had very little luck. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
