The fact is: LEGO Technics are extraordinary. In fact, they forego traditional bricks and instead use LEGO Technic pieces. Therefore (and given their construction), these sets offer LEGO builders a glimpse into engineering.
The LEGO Technic Airbus H175 rescue helicopter is no exception. It consists of 2001 pieces and offers a highly immersive building experience for LEGO builders aged 11 and over.
Additionally, this rescue helicopter redesigned by LEGO has an electric motor, so you can bring the motion features to life and see how it works. Isn't that cool? Powered features include a rotating rotor, engine and retractable landing gear.
