Overview
UH-1D "Huey" Green 800 Size Scale Army Helicopter ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) from Roban - RBN-212MI-8
The UH-1D "Huey" was developed specifically for the U.S. Army as a versatile utility helicopter capable of transporting pilots, gunners, and an infantry squad of ten. With room for up to six stretchers, the UH-1D also became a trusted MEDEVAC platform in combat zones. First delivered to the Army in 1963, over 2,000 of these iconic "Delta" models were built between 1963 and 1966.
This Roban UH-1D 800-size ARF delivers outstanding scale realism and craftsmanship. From tip to tail, the fuselage replicates the shape and surface details of the full-scale aircraft with a level of accuracy rarely seen in the RC helicopter world. The fiberglass fuselage arrives factory-painted with windows installed, all structural bulkheads pre-installed, and fully operational doors. Functional navigation and strobe lights are also included, adding another layer of authenticity.
Inside, the cockpit is fully illuminated and richly detailed, featuring joysticks, rudder pedals, an illuminated dashboard, aerials, windshield wipers, and more. The rear cabin interior is included (uninstalled), with molded floor and ceiling panels ready for assembly. Once installed, the interior creates a fully immersive and true-to-scale look. An optional balance bar upgrade for the rotor head is available (sold separately).
Access is made simple through the sliding side door, which opens to reveal a removable floor panel and battery bay. The mechanics are housed up high in the doghouse, just like in the full-size UH-1D, preserving the spacious interior for additional detailing.
Whether displayed on the ground or flying overhead, the Roban UH-1D impresses with its authentic proportions, surface detailing, and commanding scale presence.
Note:
Images may show customer-built models that include custom paint, added detailing, or other modifications. While the base model shown is the same product offered here, certain elements may differ from the out-of-box appearance.

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.

The model is very well built, and the pop open sliding doors are amazing! The skids are solid and huge. The color is way off, so I plan on repainting it Vietnam-era Huey green of the Air Cavalry. Being an Army-brat I have childhood memories of these taking off and landing at Army bases my father was assigned too. It will fit in well with my Roban 700 Apache. Looking forward to hearing the chop-chop of the blades.

Notes after a few flights

The mechanics are really set up for the Align 750MX 530KV motor. The photo above is not of the model. Its of a real Huey. The color is a much lighter green. Also the tail rotor on the model is on the non scale (right) side. If you want the tail rotor on the correct (left side) you also need to order RBN-678-052-SET (Roban 700/800 Side Support and L Lever Set). All you do is flip the tail rotor boom, (the short end section) 180° and then swap the belcrank to the other side (this is the one you bought separately). Make sure to check tail rotor direction in the gyro! Mine was now backwards and had to swap it. I'd advise against running a BEC and use a separate battery for the flight controller/servos. And another battery for the lights/ESC fan. It's too nice a model to lose because of a bad BEC.

The kit is awesome. Has a bunch of details. Instructions really need work on and for the price and to come with water-slide decals, now that's being cheapo. Huey flies great very stable. There is plenty of room and imagination to improve on. I didn't like the paint scheme it came in so I repainted it.

That being said, with the right help, it's a great kit. Maiden flight today went well. I'm over the moon. Still need some tuning but wow what a cool model. Pulled it out at the field today and everyone came over too ask about it. Manual leaves a lot out. Lots of guesswork. Find someone who has built one and ask lots of questions. Flying a heavy scale heli is very different from a sport or 3D heli. But it's really fun.

Lighting kit inside and out is very bright and can be seen in daylight. Blades were really close and required minimal balancing. The HSM-800 mechanic is very robust and I am impressed with the belt drive drive and how smooth/quiet it is at full headspeed. Took my maiden hover test yesterday and was amazing. Friends at field couldn’t get over how real it looks in the air.
