Dak, are the rotors a single part, with two sets of blades, or are they two separate parts, like the old warrior sculpt?

My plan is to make both rotors one fused piece. 3D printed resins are on the brittle side (although I'm not sure the exact stuff IWM has printed) and assembling them is a trial so I hope it's a good alternative to two separate ones.

I think this thing is already looking like seven pieces which sounds like a lot for a pretty small VTOL. (Main body, left wing, right wing, left launcher, right launcher, rotors, and tail.)

And here's the revised rotor piece:

I have updated the main thread to $450 total.

If the variant is just the LRM parts for either side add it and we will just put in the blister with it.

Right, Speck, it's just two different missile boxes. Will do!

Firesprocket,  if you want to do $50, I'll cover the other $50, so we can push this baby through to production!

Glad you guys could get that rounded out.  My ability to get into the forums has been fairly spotty.  If someone backs out though I'll stand ready to toss some money at this.

If the website is working tomorrow evening when I am on I will send out the PM's. Yesterday was the 504 timeout and tonight had to get GenCon stuff posted.

Obviously I did not get to send out the PM's. Seemed when I had time the website was not working and now I do not have time to do so before I leave tomorrow for Cincinnati. So when I come back from GenCon I will get them sent out to everyone.

Any ideas on when the vouchers are going out for this one?  I've got a big order on IWM that I thought I'd hold off on until I got this one in.

Thanks!

The last of the payments came in over the weekend while I was out of town. I will get the credit vouchers sent out by Saturday.

Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries

These, in the day when heaven was falling,      Their shoulders held the sky suspended;
The hour when earth's foundations fled,         They stood, and earth's foundations stay;
Followed their mercenary calling,               What God abandoned, these defended,
And took their wages, and are dead.             And saved the sum of things for pay.

Just a late update, but Dak sent the files to Mike. So they need to go to the printer and then molding.

Just a update, I have received master copy and will be assembling soon. As soon as I hear that production molds are done I will post for sale.
