Overview
AH-1 Cobra Gray 500 Size Helicopter Scale Conversion Kit from Roban - RBN-KFAH1DGR5
The Roban AH-1 Cobra Gray 500 size is a scale conversion kit modeled after the famous AH-1 Cobra attack helicopter used by the US Marines. This is a premium scale conversion kit that offers tremendous scale detail. From tip-to-tail the AH-1 Cobra body kit displays an accuracy of detail to the real aircraft not normally seen in the RC helicopter hobby.
This kit comes with a scale detail features like guns, rocket launchers, aerials, windshield wipers, and more. Floor and ceiling details can be crafted so once the interiors are installed you have an impressively scaled cockpit/interior.
These scale kits house the cockpit (sold separately) in precisely the right location and the mechanics are built into the engine compartment just like in the full-scale version. The AH-1 Cobra really impresses with the highly detailed and accurately scaled down profile.

Optional:
Roban Scale Helicopters are intended for modelers who have advanced level building skills. Both ARF and KIT product formats require you to install your own electronics (ESC, servos, motor, etc). KIT product formats also require you to install your own helicopter mechanics. Because helicopter mechanics can vary greatly in size and shape, you may be required to modify the fuselage slightly (including cutting, drilling, etc.) to achieve a perfect fit. Roban fuselages are all handmade from fiberglass and therefore may have slight variation in tolerances between body panels, doors, or windows. These variations do not affect flight performance and can be easily adjusted by an experienced builder with proper tools. These precautions are intended for novice builders; an experienced modeler should have no issue achieving perfect results with these premiere scale helicopters kits.

You do have to move all the electronics to the new side frames in order to have the lower tail, but it’s not that hard, and if your mechanics fly well before, they should fly just as well after the move with little adjustments.

For tail oversized be press on mfg. COULD NOT PUSH OR SLIP IN. Had to chuck in a drill and tape with Emery clothe til the fit. Should supply blind nuts.. ease of build, definitely not a beginner.. fitting and modifying, were very time consuming for a sound nice build. I consider myself a expert builder, building and fly rc helicopters since 1984.

Very happy as always with Roban fuselages (this is my 4th) and looking forward to getting the 500 size Apache when it’s back in stock.
