6mm Shakleton updated

Having updated my 1980's Lynx and Gazelle helicopters with Hurlbat rotors, I've ordered enough to update my US Marine helicopters.  I also ordered some of the 1cm diameter tail rotors as I thought they would be useful as propellers for piston engine aircraft.  So, I upgraded the Shakleton model that I did for Crisis Point Arctic Strike back in 2013.

As with the helicopter, I think the addition of propeller discs seems to make the aircraft come alive.



The Shakleton makes a high flypast over the lines during last week's first outing for my 1985 British battlegroup.


Thanks for looking.
