- The Italeri/Revell 1/72 Chinhook with motors.
A very nice kit for its age.. I was quite impressed with how it all went together.
Built with mostly Revell enamel paints using a brush and airbrush.
The motors used can be found on Ebay quite cheaply. Just search for Micro Motors, there are lots to be found in all size's...The same goes for the resistors I used.. I bought a pack with different values and tested them to get the speed I wanted from the props.
If you want to do a similar thing with your model, remember to mount the motors vertical, do NOT follow the model contours or they will clash.. Its a small compromise to get them to work and not really noticeable unless you look for it.

Awesome model build. The spinning rotors are a very cool effect. Nice job slowing the spin with a resister. I'm a neophyte when it comes to electronics, so this was very informative. Thanks for sharing your skills with the YT modeling community.
Happy modeling.
Bill
Thanks Bill..I to have limited knowlage of electronics...glad I was able to teach you something...Mike
Das hast du wunderschön gemacht! Ich gratuliere Dir wirklich.
Danke !!
This is really fantastic Mike! I’ve gotten super into mechanising my builds lately, and this has inspired me heaps. Thanks so much for showing us how to do it!
Thanks 👍👍 Glad you like...I've never been accused of inspiring someone before 😄😄
Great build! Ive been wanting to do something like this with a helo hovering near the ground and troops jumping out. Supported by a brass tube or similar. Great tips on the wiring, especially the resistor part and the direction of spin. Awesome build! Thanks for the post! Happy modeling!
Thanks Bruno.
Just remember,the trick is to mount the motors vertical so the rotors don't clash.
Mike
I found that the masking putty leaves a residue as well. If you make a ball of it then you can use it to “tack” off the residue. That works👍
Thanks Otto...I will try it.
My best friend, Enjoyed watching this video my friend Really awesome views Thank you Stay connected
Bloody brilliant 👌
Thanks very much 👍
yes wow. I'm building one now, struggling with paints, thanks for tips
Thanks boyo...Let me know how it goes 👍
Great build! Might have to do a helicopter one day!
Great work, you should paint around the window glass edge and plastic edge the same colour as camo or the grey astic shows up
Another great build, Mike’s father was a professional model aircraft maker, making model aircraft and made beautiful model aircraft models , so. Mike learned from the best .
Thanks for your kind words.
You obviously know me and knew my dad...
And you are ??
@@307vrr I used to be great friends with your brother Martin when we’re in our later teens, and your Mam was one of the nicest human beings I ever meet, what a lovely woman she was.
@@Red-Revolution708 P.L. I presume 😉
@@307vrr When your mum used to live in the tin houses I lived around the corner my name .
Really cool, and thanks for the ideas.
Thank you Max
Definitely some cool ideas and tips
Super job and very inspirational.
I’m off to eBay now!
Subbed.
All the best,
Ian
Thanks Ian
If you get one be sure to let me know when its built...Mike
@@307vrr 👍🏼
Nice work Mike i spent some time being taxied around in the back of these in a past life , cheers marra . Regards Gav.
Thanks for your comment Gav. Never had the pleasure myself...Had a spin in a Wildcat instead courtesy of my sons past life..😁
This makes me want to motorise all my builds going forward tbh
@Andrew Charlton
I have done quite a few now and not just helicopters...spits,p47s,p39s even a lanc in the past.
Some are more challenging than others...but the same principal.
Let me know how you get on
Nice work
Thanks Tony
@@307vrr my pleasure
That is GREAT!!!
Thanks for the post and letting us know where to find those 'motors' [ although a link Could be provided :) ]. But in all seriousness it looks good, even with the 'tan' underside, But here is where I would have you Look At References!!
Looking at references, and not just the instructions for a paint job, is SO Vital, and Time-consuming......... If you look at my channel I build ships (I do like to build other genera), but my MIDWAY took me Seven (7) Years to complete, due to finding such rare references, even though I live in Southern California where MIDWAY is a museum, but still want to make sure what was added to the museum and Not add it to the model's timeline.
Again, Great Post and those rotor rotation is Spot-On!!!
Thanks for the comment.
If you take a look at my MH-53 video there is a link in the description there....Mike
Awesome build! Love the motorized tutorial. Try using foam safe super glue it won't fog clear parts, is a tad more money tho. Cheers Trey
Thanks Trey.
I will pick some up and try it
Brilliant!
Thank you 👍
I love how you spin the rotors like u shrink-ray the real thing! Sadly, if only the rotors can hold alot of centrifugal force to withstand the speed, it is beautiful
Nevertheless, awesome work there mate. Cheersss
Thanks Marc
Nice model, but the underside has to be black. 😉👍
The slower rotor speed looks a lot better as Chinooks have a rotor speed of 180 rpm, quick, but not super fast. Underneath I seem to remember being a dark grey, not quite black.
Excelente 👏😁😁 o Sr deve ser de Marte kkkkk brincadeira meu amigo tudo bem? Quê maravilha 😁😊
No not Mars...
Wales 😀😀
Thank you ! 👍
Awesome!! Where did you store the battery power pack? How did you wire the switch for easy on/off control? I need that in the video! I wanna do this!!!!
I use a seperate battery holder for AA 1.5v
The switch is built into the holder.
I need this
👍
you stated that you used a 10R to reduce the speed of the blades, where did you place the resistor to achieve this result. Thanks
@james west
I didn't place it in the model.
I wired it inline with the + wire just after the battery.
Amazing Video as always! Would it be possible to lift a helicopter when the Motors are Spinning faster? lol
Thanks boyo 👍
I don't think so 😄😄
@@307vrr Ok 😂
Nice job. But shouldn't the title and description mention "Chinook" instead of "Chinhook"?
Shhhhh lol
Yes you are correct...well spotted
Now corrected...
Thanks for bringing it to my attention
@@307vrr Glad to help. Did you also adapt the splash screen at the start of the video? That would be harder to change, I guess.
@@rc-fannl7364 yes I changed the thumbnail but it doesn't seem to have updated as yet..
I will check it again later.
Hi Once i try but melt down with the heat of the engine . Any sugestion ?
Less power ? I only use a 1.5v AA battery to power my models.
Also did you run it for a long time ?
I have only run mine for a short time. Once I do a video of it I pack it away in a box.
New sub bro
Fantastic work but why oh why not research the correct colour for the underside of the airframe?
@c8136132 Thank you very much....
I did...but I couldnt find a photo of the exact airframe depicted in the kit so I went with it
@@307vrr all airframes were black underside from that era. Airframes weren’t uniquely camouflaged. Anyway your motorisation is exceptional 👏🏻
Another trick to get the motors to spin slower. Run positive to one motor, have a wire go from the first motor to the second, then run a wire from the second motor to battery negative.
BTW I teach electrical.
@Thad repairs it all
Thanks for yor reply
Funny enough a friend suggested that a couple of days ago...
I will give it a go on my next motorised build.. Mike
Life advice No.126: always avoid the shaft when using superglue.
Good advice 😄
The kits how much is it! 1:40
Its a 1/72 scale....I bought it on Ebay...I think I paid £20 ish...It was a while ago now so I not sure...
Get faster motors and see if you can get some lift going
