I'd definitely buy it for a police/S.T.A.R.S. black hawk. |

I believe so. They had a black one before at TRU. Then they had a Coast Guard painted version.

So, Motormax was the other company that did True Heroes products besides Chap Mei?

So, I was starting to unbox that Sentinel 1 Patrol Boat last night, and I noticed a design defect which bugs me. Specifically, the hatch on top of the cabin--when you latch it shut, it pulls on the "windshield" of the cabin, and the "windshield" becomes detached from the body at the very front. If you unlatch the hatch, and reconnect the "windshield" properly, you can see that the hatch barely even reaches the bar on the top of the "windshield" where it's supposed to latch. Any of you guys who have the boat have the same problem? If so, what's your workaround? I don't want to glue the "windshield" in place, for fear that the stress could eventually cause damage. I could just not latch the hatch, but I don't want it swinging around all willy-nilly. I also don't want to do any extensive customization, because I'm not that type of person. Suggestions?
(I did have one idea of my own; I was looking at the weapons tree, and I noticed that on the sides are two rectangular "blocks" with elliptical gaps in them...I'm almost wondering if I should cut those off the tree, glue them to the bar on top of the "windshield", and use those as the latch points for the hatch.)

I noticed the red light on mine and always thought it looked like it should light up.

I picked up a rocket helicopter last week and finally opened it. The rocket pod looks like the one that is used on the Hind helos, I thought it was cool but when I opened it up, there was only one pod and it definitely is not for this bird. I looked on the box to see if I could identify what vehicle the rocket pod came from but nothing matched.

I am strongly considering adding lights to mine. I'll post up pics and a tutorial on what I have in mind if I ever actually execute it, but I have some ready-made red/blue strobing LEDs on a circuit that flash for 15 seconds or so when activated. All I would need to do is cut the blue LED out, wire a momentary switch up to the circuit, hot-glue the LED/board into place under the light housing, and install the switch in the existing port in the side of the helicopter and it would be all set for a red flashing light from that housing.
