Description
This is Gonzalo Martinez Epic 1/7.5 Scale Chinook build. It took over 2 years to complete and he did an amazing job on the scale details!
The model weights 51 lbs without batteries and is powered by an electric motor with a 6.9 shaft. Each rotor disk is about 8ft in diameter. The kit was assembled and painted by Gonzalo. This is not an easy modle to assemble or program and Vario is the best resource for help with the build!
