Magellan Models offers a large selection of wooden desktop helicopter models. Our line of helicopter models include handcrafted wooden helicopter replicas of some of the most popular models. These military helicopter models represent aircraft with a rotor, like a propeller, which is powered by a variety of methods such as an internal-combustion engine or jet turbine.
Tip jets, fed by gases passing along hollow rotor blades from a centrally-mounted engine, have been experimented with. Attempts have even been made to mount engines directly on the rotor tips. Helicopters obtain forward propulsion by angling the rotor disc so that a proportion of its lift is directed forwards to provide thrust.
