I bought several of your models through Chris and I really like your helicopter subjects. I saw a couple of unusual types that happen to be hot commodities right now. I like all the Kaman helicopters and recently saw some TV show using the new K-Max high lift chopper. It offers high lift weights with excellent control. Since the fuselage is one-person wide, it offers excellent visibility for the pilot, especially with the optional bubble side window. The other subject is the Sikorsky X2. It uses concentric main rotors for torque-free lift and a tail rotor/propeller to increase forward speed similar to the AH-56 Cheyenne. It is being developed as high speed gun-ship to protect the V-22 Osprey. Sikorsky has designated the project as the S-97 Raider high-speed scout and attack helicopter.
