This has to be the coolest unboxing videos ever.

Must feel like Christmas morning on that worhkshop floor.

That is the best Airfix kit ever! Must be a satisfying job to see it go to its new school or owner.

Thanks for the kind words. This was shot as part of a Doco I was making about a year ago. Unfortunatly the business changed hands soon after this was shot. So now I have to reshoot everything. There will be full interviews with both pilots and mechanics in the Doco.

Peter after so many years i see you in you tube. How small world :-) You are also the best helicopter pilot instructor not only an excellent engineer.

pretty cool unboxing video =)

Very good video - clear and easy to follow and very interesting as well - well done Guys !

3:10-3:30 so many memories of this.

Hi, I'm Ron Popeil, and this is the amazing Pocket Helicopter!!!!

Great video!

Robinson... The bic lighters of helicopters

Thanks for that Paul. Glad you liked it.

Great video guys! Good work! Thank you for bringing it to my attention. Very interesting to see how it's done - any chance of a commentary version? Would be good to know a bit more about the tools and so on. Did you start it straight up - what is the first start procedure? Maaaan, I love helicopters!

Nice to see that done, I've flown a few, but if I'd have seen this first, I'd have been checking different nuts in the A check lol

It soon will be disassembled. Not with tools, but with blunt force.

It doesn't explain what tools to use and what parts go first

Those cloth covers look good, I've never seen anyone using them. Mind you its been a while since I've flown an R22, maybe the factory never supplied them back then.

Yes, but once the R22 has done a certain number of hours it has to go back to the factory for a complete rebuild, Basically its virtually scrap after so many hours of use.

Cool vidéo

The title should be "Assembling the R-22 Helicopter." No big deal, just more accurate for us KZfaq browsers. Building made me think it was going to be a factory video. Either way, I still enjoyed it.

Thanks for the reply

QUERO UM!

Most beautiful toy ever

BILLY MAYS HERE WITH ANOTHER GREAT OFFER!!!

Thanks

*Ikea will be selling them soon*

Very nice video ...

I would love to do this after I obtain my A&P!

from unpacking to completion how long did it take ?

Great

just Like Assembling A Backyard Porch

I always thought Robinson R22 and R44 helicopters looked liked the equivalent of a kit car in helicopter form ... I was right !!

Now for the fun part; blade balance & tracking.

Can you buy an R22 on Amazon? Unboxing was cool...never seen that before, thanks for the upload OP.

How much does it cost ?

Where did you get it from

Excellent film footage but needed dialogue as to what was being connected.

MT234-1 tool!nice opportunity to use it...

What is the value of the assembly? Does the price of R22 today reach $ 400,000?

Good afternoon! Fascinating as it is theoretically easy transportation and assembly of this helicopter model. I am passionate about aeronavese helicopters, maybe one day I can get one for myself. Can you tell me the value of a kit like this? and value of the assembly please?

awesome is wish is was there to see it

Good point. Title changed

as pás de cauda desse helicoptero são bem pequenas em vista de outros ......

This is how the aircraft arrived in Australia.

Everything was filmed in the one day. They actually put together 2 R22s

No torque wrenches?

2:21 those two nuts look smoked!! cant tell if they are or its just the focus on the camera.. As seen looks like some of my handy work when i was 10 years old and fixed everything with vise grips

IKEA

Are you out of the country? or is this how they send them to all dealers?

Love it

Mom never gets me nuthin :(

LOL. Don't forget the free steak knives

you guys make it look so simple and easy. But I reckon you've been at it for a while now. I'm sure you had your hiccups at first too, eh?

OMG , its Airfix for grown ups.

I'll buy an R22. First, I'll just win the lottery..

Dont forget the jesus-nut

My rc helicopters are more complicated to assemble then a r22. One day I'll be flying my real heli to the flying field to fly my rc heli's

yup junk
