The RC helicopter variant of the Tiger Eurocopters shown here is an extremely detailed replica model in 1/4.8 scale. All flaps, doors, engine parts and controls are 1 to 1 based on the original. The cockpit of the RC helicopter is particularly detailed. The dashboard and every switch look exactly like the original helicopter.
The finished model can then hardly be distinguished from the original. The 4-blade tail rotor is made entirely of aluminum with a bevel gear combination 1:1 with a diameter of 23.3 mm. The production of all parts is done in moulds. The RC Tiger Helicopter is powered by a Jakadofsky Pro X Turbine. The turbine brings the main rotor of the RC helicopter to approx. 895 rpm.
