Hughes 500

The Hughes 500 is a compact, agile light helicopter originally developed for military use and later adapted for civilian roles. Known for its distinctive egg-shaped fuselage and excellent maneuverability, it has been widely used for reconnaissance, training, law enforcement, and utility missions. Reliable, fast, and versatile, the Hughes 500 has become an icon among light helicopters. The weak point of this Micro Machines model is the small fin mounted above the tail rotor; it is very fragile and is often missing on helicopters found for sale.
