I have started many models and showed them. They never go much further than just starting because of this project. I started this one as a request by someone. It has been my only progressing project. Once it is finished, I will go onto other models I started that will never get finished. 

----------------------------------------------------------------
This S-61 project is using the original S-61 GMax source files for the FS2004 version by Dave Hardcastle. Once the project is finished, we will have a nice S-61N for FSX!

The To-Do list:

-The nose will be reshaped slightly to fix some modeling errors. Completed

-I will add more details to the exterior, such as antennas and search lights.

-The main rotor will be animated so that the rotor head actually spins. Completed

-The textures for the rotors will be redone. Completed

-VC will get a makeover with new panel, seats, and flight controls.

-Flight Controls will get animated

-A working winch will be added.

(There is a lot of other stuff not mentioned; all the big things that the FS2004 model lacked or needed improved are listed above)

Model Variants:

S-61N (Normal Model)
S-61L (For Sling load operations and has no floats
SAR (Winch, rescue equipment, etc)
Firefighter (Tank and bambi bucket versions)

A special thanks to Conor Kavavagh for bugging me to keep working and not letting me goof off.

I will post the latest pics soon! In the mean time, you can see them over on hovercontrol.com. Just click here!

Brandon, Garry is right, on both the S-61 and SH-3/ Seaking the rotor dome is fixed, it is fixed to to main rotor central rotating star and not the blades themselves, basically it will rotate with the head but not change angle with the blades. the beenie (what we called it in the Fleet Air Arm) contains a lubricating fluid resevoir for the blades flapping and cyclic hinges and provides some form of protection or all the various pipelines.

I like it!  However, I think the first textures on there (red and white) are far too brash.  They seem to be a little overkill.  Perhaps some duller tones, then liven it up with alpha channel?  The model itself looks nice, and I like being able to see the characteristics of the actual mesh with that blank white texture applied.
