Kellett XR-8 helicopter.
Two aircraft built and flown during 1944 and onwards to test the synchronised rotor system for helicopters. While not completely successful - blades actually touched on a couple of occasions the the concept was used by others notably Kaman.
Apart from the rotor blur tex which is by Kelticheart this model is all my own work so all the mistakes are mine.
Happy eggbeating
