Thanks, I’m really happy with the result, it really looks like the real deal now. I’ve spent the day ordering all parts via Bricklink. I had to change quite a lot of parts due to the colors not being available or extremly rare. A white cross axle 3L costs €22..... so black it is, as they’re not visible anyway. Hopefully I didn’t have to change too much. Once all parts are in and I can start building I’ll keep you updated.

I found your MOC about two weeks ago and loved it! I work with these helicopters and how close you got to the general composition and scale is very impressive, the shape of the canopy is also amazingly accurate. Because I would love to have a lego model like this I downloaded your .lxf file. Upon opening I lost about 200 parts for some reason so I had to reconstruct some parts, as I now was already working on it I got hooked and continued to adjust and improve the awesome work you already performed. To get a model as close I could get to the real thing. Today I finished the model. It became a standard Schweizer 300 S269C. You can find it here: https://www.mecabricks.com/en/models/JV2yVJKKjyQ I put a reference to this topic and the Lego ideas page in the description. Thank you for releasing the .lxf file as I could have never started this from scratch myself, this is actually the first digital lego creation I did. I’m now looking to order all the parts so I can build it in real life.
