Until I get round to finishing the Mi-2 for the Mil series, here's a bit of fun for you all :P Not based on any one helicopter in particular, this combines design features of many real world models (minus the horrifically impractical tail assembly) and mashes them together into one, along with a modern day Russian Police type colour scheme. Performance wise, it maxes out at around 230 mph and handles relatively well at all speeds. Turning off RCN when flying at speed can massively increase its range by allowing pitch to be substituted by the variable VTOL nozzle below the main rotors. Hope you enjoy it! :D
