8046 Helicopter is a TECHNIC set which was released in January 2010. The set contains 152 pieces and instructions for a helicopter and a seaplane.
Description[]
The set includes 152 pieces, mainly in Red, Black and White, which are used to build the set's main model, a red and white helicopter, as well as a secondary model, a seaplane.
The Helicopter[]
The main model of the set, the helicopter has a gear system used to spin the rotors and a working winch. The rotor gear system is unusual because it uses one gear system to turn both rotors, a function it shares with only one other set, 8068 Rescue Helicopter.
The Seaplane[]
The seaplane is the secondary model of the set, and also has a gear system, which in this case, turns the propeller. The seaplane uses the pieces used as the helicopter's rotor blades as floats.
