Fantastic! Bit disappointed it doesn't have real turbines... I imagine they stack the build cost considerably though.

One with a proper engine, wonder if either have the hydraulic shower installed for realism points at contests?

The Wokka came into service after I left, but I assume that 'hydraulic showers' were par for the course for rotary!! Interesting demonstration of the relationship between mass and inertia ... and depth of pockets for modern hobbies!

All they have done is move the FMS controls outside of the cockpit. A forecast of the future?
