The 1/84 and 1/72 scale tanks look cool. I also kinda dig the not-Lego mechs and vehicles. |

Did anyone see the RDA gunship on this page?
I just finished drooling all over my keyboard… the listing says 1/165 scale… could be just big enough to work as a single seat light gunship for 15mm….

For those drooling over the RDA gunship I couldn't get my head around the taobao website, so I had a look on Aliexpress link As I understand it that's 8 models for £13.00 GBP or about $21 USD Is that right do you think (I might have to order just to find out) |
| Wargamedownloads | 08 May 2014 7:22 a.m. PST |
I think the box is saying 1:165 scale. |
| TK 421 | 08 May 2014 8:42 a.m. PST |
Correct! 1/165 or 1" = 13'9"
I'm not really sure though, but upon close inspection (to include profuse drooling)they all come in the same size box and the big plane should look larger and it doesn't. I guess the best thing would be to ask or find out the dimensions of the assembled model. |

I translated the page and they are marketing these as 1/144 scale models. They are being sold in retail packaging too, not individually. |

Aliexpress is 8 for $21 USD but it isn't for 8 of the RDA Gunships. A source on eBay was selling them for $2.50 USD a pop plus like $5 USD shipping to the States. I am awaiting a response from them if he/she will be selling more.
Those interested in the response i get send en email to me at grimmnar AT everyone's least fav ISP provider DOT com Grimm |

Here we go! A picture is indeed worth a thousand words! I definitely want this and the other helos too and so will you. Looks like we have a near perfect match for 15mm. Scroll to the bottom. Sorry for the large image. I want to know who's selling them individually also.

Now i have seen a hand next to the RDA Gunship for scale purposes i thinks its pretty much bang on for 15mm use,i may well have to get a couple of them if i can. |
| TK 421 | 09 May 2014 7:49 a.m. PST |
Absolutely! This turns out to be the same guy Grimmnar is talking about. He's selling the retail set currently. I'm only interested in this one and the helicopters. I also looked for a way to contact him but didn't have any luck. I've searched for it but the results bring me back to this guy and the other website from the original post. |
| TK 421 | 09 May 2014 10:39 a.m. PST |
The assembled model is 5" long. Push come to shove, I will buy the damn retail packages since I can use the other helicopters and gift out the rest to my nephews. |
| grommet37 | 09 May 2014 5:32 p.m. PST |
Those Korean-labeled planes are nice. If you get that 8-pack, I would definitely buy the two 1/115 Attack Helicopters from you. Also, guys… 1/84 scale TANKS!!! link |

In all the excitement no one noticed that the rotor assembly is on bacwards. ;-) |
