Starter Kit Airbus Helicopters EC135 "Air-Glaciers": The lifesaver from the Alps
When every second counts in the Swiss mountains, this helicopter is often the last hope. The EC135 from Air-Glaciers is a symbol of alpine rescue expertise. With this starter kit you don't just get a kit, but a piece of Swiss aviation history home. The special thing about this set: you can start immediately. We have already packed the appropriate base colors, a brush and the special model building glue in the box. It is the perfect package to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of rotorcraft without the stress of preparation.
Why this set is ready for use
- Everything included: No extra trip to the store – Aqua Color paints, brushes and Contacta glue are included. Ideal for beginners and as a gift.
- Look inside: The kit impresses with a detailed cockpit with instrument panel and a well-designed interior.
- Technical sophistication: A highlight of the EC135 is the encased “Fenestron” tail rotor, which is also precisely reproduced in the model.
- Moving parts: The movable main rotor ensures a dynamic look after assembly.
- Authentic design: The high-quality decals allow you to create an exact replica of the “HB-ZRK” machine from 2015.
Building this 1:72 scale model is an exciting task (Level 4). You assemble the aerodynamic shell and devote yourself to the fine details of the rescue equipment inside. Thanks to its compact size of approx. 14 cm, the finished helicopter can fit anywhere, but looks very realistic thanks to the fine surface structures. It's a wonderful way to understand the technology that makes this helicopter one of the most used rescue tools in the world.
