does anyone know of bodies to fit an eco8 other than the Jet Ranger and BO 105.
Or anyone know what the 105 is like in terms of quality.
Cheers

There is a nice looking Bell 222 for the Eco8 from DarthDrk - and loads of other boides at his site - Darthdrk's site (http://darthdrk.4t.com/index.html)
I've not tried it - but his stuff has a good reputation. Superman217 has posted some great photos (and a video?) of his very nice 222 Eco in the bell222 thread.
Cheers

Please do not forget the fuselages for Gensmantel Heaven,
which are almost the same as ECO 8:(UH-1, BK117, Hughes500)

In particular, BK117 due to Mr. Guenter is very beautiful,
I will buy one next year.
Further, another Bell222, Airwolf:

And the fuselages for JR E-Voyagers (Agusta109Power, Bell230, Ecreuil,
Bell214(the latest, not available yet))

I've had a Ikarus BO105 fuselage kit that I wanted to fit onto a Voyager but never had the time. But from the looks of it, the kit quality is very high. Material is the bleech bottle type, but thinner and lighter than anything I've seen. The hardware for angled tailboom modification is very well done, with carbon plates and bearings throughout. Only part I didnt like was how they want you to mount the landing gear to the fuselage instead of heli chasis.
