Engine + mounting 

Engine - next steps 

Wires and boxes... 

... time to finish (I tear off more than I glue 😉 ) 

OK Now it's finished (almost 😄 ) 

A bit changed tail 🙂 

Pre-painted engine 

Cockpit started 

Based on better resolution photo I decided to add some more to engine & neighbourhood 😄
Looks like I have to add turbocharger blocks (?) and inlet filter. 

Version on the left - is on the model. Version on the right - something like that should be  

I added some control sticks, a shelf with a lamp and a generator (?) 

One step up - rotor in progress 

Cocpit completed 

Cockpit 

Grinded rotor blades 

Completed rotor with engine 

Zoom to rotor head 

Due to some "geometrical" problems I had to cut off the tail and change a bit its shape... 

Now main and tail rotors do not collide 🙂 

Here's an explanation of "geometrical" problems - the shadow shows previous position of the tail. Be warned when assembling the kit 🙂  

Fuselage painted 

Main rotor painted 

Current status - still rear rotor and undercarriage needed (and some decals 😉 ) 

Decals applied 

Decals applied 

New shaft (after changing geometry of tail the old one was too short)
