They are tiny - like a Mini with rotors! Saw one flying at Yeovilton air day last year - they look like some sort of insect with the long legs. The pilot was throwing it around quite nicely, and they make a good noise too.
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

I've found the mag article on converting the Airfix Scout to a WAsp, its in Scale Aircraft Modelling, vol 1 Number 4, Jan 1979 and the main article in the mag is on the Mirage F1. If anyone wants me to scan and post the Wasp article here I will.
