MicTroy23 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Hello! I present to the attention of the visitors, another one of my homemade Kamovyh line. The model was built from various plastics (PVC, economy panel plugs, cable ducts, sprue, etc.) and wires of different cross section. Paint and varnish with a brush. Paints: Gunze Sangyo urethane acrylic, Tamiya lacquer. Good viewing. 39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Very interesting and really unique subject! Next great modelling! You have forced me to read more about it, just to know http://www.aviastar.org/helicopters_eng/ka-56.php, so many thanks for it... So the story is that it was constructed but never flown due to lack of proper rotary engine... Second interesting news is that a kit of this machine exists in 1/48! https://www.scalemates.com/pl/kits/armory-am48101-kamov-ka-56-osa--1088996 Regards J-W 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonners Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 That is brilliant; very unusual and nicely made. It looks completely terrifying, speaking as someone who has spent about 5 1/2 hours strapped into the front of a 10 tonne helicopter today! I don't think I would be too happy about flying with a rotary engine tucked up between my legs... Jon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k5054nz Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 That's beautiful! Superb work. I want one. Dad's not a fan of gyrocopters so maybe he'd be happier with me flying one of these... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Amazing scratch-building! Not something I would volunteer to fly, but that's just me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know there was such a set. Even if I had, I would have built one anyway. ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellsprop Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Very different, clearly some excellent modelling skills needed to scratch build in such detail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
