Hello,
just thought i'd share some photos of a blackhawk unlike many out there. this one is a radio controlled model. it is 4 1/2 feet long and weighs 15LBS. it has a fully detailed cockpit, working lights, releasable cargo hook and stabilator. it is capeable of ground taxiing, run-on takeoff and landings, slingload operations and in case of an engine failure (theres only one) an autorotation.
it was finished last year (2006) and took approximately 9 months to build. it got 2nd place at its first major contest in Muncie Indiana and will be competing at this year's nationals.
it was modelled from a machine used here at FT.Rucker Alabama for training.
Enjoy the pics.
