As a major vendor of retrofit fuselages for a wide range of different model helicopters, Hightorque USA is very proud of its reputation for providing high quality product and customer support that is second to none.
Their range started 6 years ago supplying replica fuselages for the then popular Piccolo size helicopters. The market has now diversified in both directions. The larger models are becoming more and more popular, and also there has been a rapid increase in sale of the ultra small 6” palm size models, and the easy to fly co-axials, that people can fly around their homes. To try to cater for this divergence in sizes Hightorque has produced fuselages to fit many of the helicopters from 6” to 45” in length. At present there are 33 different fuselages available for delivery from the USA logistics, and 39 from the UK, a mixture of sizes and types from Airwolf to Sikorsky.
Their website has a “Helicopter Fuselage by Model” matrix showing many of the popular models and linking them to the suitable range of fuselages.
Together with associated companies they have develloped complimentary items such as retracts for the 400, 450, 500 and 600 size models

Also available is a tail link mechanism for the 400/450 size models to allow the tail rotor to be placed in its correct position at the tip of the tail fin to match the original helicopter where required. http://www.high-torque.com/uk/html/catalog/%20images/uh_1c_2.jpg%20

Shown here is one of our Bell UH-1C fuselages fitted to a T-Rex 450 with the tail link fitted.
