Always wanted to build one of these and figured I ought to try something to get out of the modelling funk. I think it's more of a 'to nice to be inside modelling' funk, tho. And too busy !

Dug out the toys and the spares and the cat and the beer.....



Not sure if the Sea Thing had more powerful engines or not, but they're going to look the part !



Cuting out the fuselage to accept the new engines.

Will you make a version inspired by the Rutan Voyager? a push-pull autogyro? :blink: ;D
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

Captain Canada: Both later CH-124 and CH-113 (after SARCUP) have 1500 shp T58-GE-8F-100s (which I think is the highest output T58). But, as you said, they'll "look the part".  :thumbsup:

Looking forward to this!

Captain Canada

Wasn't planning on it, Tophe, but I might be now !

Is that a swivelling ducted fan at the back?  Way cool!

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Thanks guys. Be sure to thank Tophe as well. But I have to thank him, and curse him at the same time....'cause now I've had to dig out a second one !
