My guess is that a lot of kids younger than 14 are going to want to give this quad a whirl. -

The H67 is available in white with red props or red with white props. No choice of music, however. -

In typical JJRC fashion, the box and tray make for excellent storage later. -

Here's everything unboxed and nearly ready. The pamphlet at lower left has a QR code for a JJRC VR game! -

The LEGO-compatible top cover is easily removed to access the FC. The red and black wires near the upper right power the sound module (hint, hint). -

The underside of the H67 shows the battery cage, connector and sound module. It's the round thing beneath the cage.

This little eHawkEye seems to have spent more time in the back room of the hobby shop as opposed to in the air. It cleaned up nicely. -

After much hooing and hawing - and spending a few more clams than I'd anticipated - this critter finally flies. -

Am I pleased with the result? Oh, yes.

This is the real thing flying over the local mountains. When I visited the museum, it was being overhauled in a hangar. I got some great detail photos as a result. (Photo: Palm Springs Air Museum) -

Shaping up nicely as of today! All of the paint detail except for the wheels is complete. -

This is last week's test fitting of the Park Flyer Plastics cockpit kit. -

I took this on my phone in order to send it to a friend. The flat black acrylic is standard stuff, but as I discovered, certain sizes of CA hinges have been discontinued! These pinned hinges work nicely. -

Our crew is freshly painted and nearly ready for installation! The same friend who got the photo of the hinges and paint dubbed these guys "The Buggsy Twins." -

Unfortunately, I had to trim these busts above the hands to get them to fit under the canopy. -

Trimmed and installed. Since the model is going to feature Bugs Bunny, I thought it would be appropriate to add some temporary ears to the captain. I wanted to do a Daffy Duck bill for the copilot, but I couldn't make one small enough. -

A nice thing about radio control is that the model would still be flyable with the pilots facing aft!

Here are most of the parts after six coats of Minwax Polycrylic. Priming is next. -

Callie Graphics did a stellar job reproducing the nose art and nomenclature of the "What's Up Doc?" tribute C-47 at the Palm Springs Air Museum. -

The artwork was done by a member of the museum. Callie used a stock graphic of Elmer Fudd since it proved difficult to photograph the parachuting figure on the full scale C-47. -

Painted and installed, these Park Flyer Plastics parts are going to look fantastic. The windshield profile on this canopy is far more accurate than the original. -

It's looking more like it's ready for paint! The original canopy is resting in place for this picture. Its windshield is far too pointed in comparison to the prototype or the replacement part. -

This is what the future "What's Up Doc" looked like before that dreaded tip stall. The photo is from the review; note the injection marks all over the wings!

Here's where I began with the fuselage after removing (sadly) the Callie Graphics decals. Not even close to as bad as it could have been! -

Here it is with everything removed. The split in the nose at the seam made it easy to R&R the battery tray. The tail wheel bracket has since been removed. -

One thing about Callie Graphics decals: They stick really well. Note the deep, inaccurate panel lines. They wouldn't stay that way for long. Note one of the two big but clean cracks below the window at lower left. They've since been repaired. -

This was the first of two jars of Hobbico HobbyLite filler. 1600 millimeters worth of wingspan make this a big model! -

After plunging the nose into boiling water and smoothing out the foam cells with my thumb, the nose looks almost normal. -

The missing foam is replaced, the battery tray is back in place and initial filling and sanding are nearly complete. -

Almost finished! It's much nicer in this shot than when I started. The slot behind the dome has since been filled. The other slot remains open for a more accurate looking antenna, perhaps from a Dynam C-47. -

Not much under the canopy. This will be receiving a Park Flyer Plastics canopy kit with its more scale accurate canopy, cockpit and pilot figures.
