1:18 Chinook or Super Stallion?
1:18 Chinook or Super Stallion?
I was looking around though several forums, and Google looking for a 1:18 Army Chinook or Marine Super Stallion and I've git up with zilch. Well except for the Power Team chinook but it does nothing for me. I started looking for 1:18 models that I could use but the only ones I see are 1/72's. Anyone know of any that are in 1:18?

Well, considering at that scale both would be around 5 feet long its no wonder none have been made.

I'd kill to have a 1:18 Super Stallion. There's hardly any Super Stallion things out there. Aside from plastic models, the only other Super Stallion items is a really funky green painted cheaply built one that I see occasionally at airshow vendors, and then the recent Transformers MH-53 which actually don't look all that bad, but of course are Transformers. There's several CH-46 things out there, including the newer New Ray line. I just don't understand why manufacturers have no love for the Super Stallion.

P51 I know, I like the stallion more, but in Vietnam they made a few chinooks into gunboats and that's the purpose of me wanting to get one. I wonder if there is a.way to get one cast.

if you search through the r/c plane sticky in the 1/18 forum, there is an r/c sea stallion fuselage made by a company in germany. It's a couple hundred dollars or so i think....maybe less. Looks pretty decent. You'd need to make your own rotors for it or buy r/c ones that won't look very realistic.
There is a 1/22 chinook fuselage kit available here, areound $60 plus shipping iirc:
