Flettner 282 Kolibri

Congratulations to Huma for its kit collection!! Among the unusual subject inside the catalog is this extraordinary kit: the 1/72th Kolibri, the first operational helicopter in the world. Herr Flettner get the solution to control the torque by means of a dual main rotor; this solution was successfully adopted by Kaman helicopters after the war... and Mister Flettner, became a CEO of that company for many years.

The model, of course, is a real eye-catcher in  the showcase...
