one of my favorite subjects - very well done! how did you build the 5-blade rotors and the side radar?

The props were the most difficult. I asked Revell for a spare prop, which they were kind enough to send me and then cut all the blades loose, but one. I took a picture of a real fivebladed prop and reduced it to scale and used it as a template. I only made one mistake: on one of the props, the blades are at a wrong angle compared to the original blade. But who cares. The SLAR I cut and sanded from a piece of styrene 2.0 x 3.2 mm
