Feature Suggestions » SAB Goblin Comet

I purchased a Gaui R5 helicopter just because it's so much fun to fly in the neXt simulator. I fly it all the time in the sim. I wonder if SAB company could help you out creating a Goblin Comet (yellow) for neXt. I know it's hard work for you but maybe they would help financially? I would certainly use it!

OK, I understand. So is that a no or a maybe? How about I ask SAB since it is good advertising and sells helicopters? And I forgot to mention I really like the optional retractable landing gear like the R5 has. I understand if the answer is no because it is a very expensive helicopter. Thanks.

That is interesting, you only need 2 pictures. What angle do the pictures need to be from? What is the minimum resolution? I have a Nikon D700 with a quality Nikkor 300mm lens, and I know how to use it. Lighting is the hard part however and I would need guidance with that. Here is a link to the Helibug web site. At the bottom of this page are pictures I took of my 700N. The lighting is not very good but I used my D700 and took the pictures without doing any special setup other than a tripod.

Quote: "I still need the 3D model to build a helicopter for the simulator."

So does that mean you need an actual model Comet helicopter in your possession to do that?

OK, that's great. I will see what I can do. It would be great to have a Comet in neXt to go with the R5.

I sent a message to SAB but never heard back. Guess they're not interested. Too bad. Doesn't surprise me. I've never heard from Align either when I tried to contact them.
