30465 Helicopter

Hmm, seems I'm a little late to the party... I just finished my reverse engineered version after seeing the polybag picture somewhere on the internet. I came close...:

I think I only missed that blue pin in the tail (taillight). And I only have the old version of the tail rotor (polybag has square blades)

It is a fun little build, cleverly executed and looks quite good too for it's size. For me it's not worth picking it up, I have enough parts to make a fleet of these little guys, and possibly in a few different colors too, but this set sure is a nice surprise!

All,
thanks for the additional pictures that helped to finish my version:

As you will notice I changed the center gears to have the tail rotor turning faster than the main one.

Wait, no instruction?

As long as we're complaining, no B model, either. 

Just kidding. It's a cute little set, great for introducing people to Technic.

Don't know if anyone's still interested, but I can confirm that the set does include instructions and I should have a video review coming shortly.

Yes, I'm still interested.

When and where will this set be available ? It's nowhere to be found on the lego website

The mere fact that it's not a car makes it interesting in the 2021 context...

Does it include a slow-mo build ?

Even better, the full two pages of instructions.
