Madaxeman started this off with his 1/300th Hinds for CWC
,
I gave Kris a call at Hurlbat (www.hurlbat.co.uk) and after a quick email exchange asked him for a custom five bladed rotor for a 1/600th Hind (I had wanted enough for all my helos but as this was new project it had a bit of risk so limited it to enough of these and tail rotors (not yet photo'd) for 5 machines

Impressed with:
A. The company responsiveness
B. Cost, these were custom 29mm diameter with small hole
C. They are willing to do more! So new rotor disks for my HH-53C and the rest of my 1/600th helos inbound
D. They can do these in any size so scalable for any CWC game

The ones in the pictures have a 10 degree fan etched on. I have suggested a slightly wider fan so I have just seen his new drafts with a 15 arc. When I get them in I will put the photos up for people to give him some feedback on.

Note: I am in no way connected with Hurlbat

.5mm is the thinnest (fine for 3 and 6mm) I think they can do wider thicknesses
