Real pilots don’t just fly helicopters — they know every detail of what keeps them soaring through the skies. That’s why we designed the Thunder Chopper, a highly detailed DIY model for true sky enthusiasts. This wooden 3D constructor comes with spinning blades, a tail rotor, a fully detailed cockpit, mini missile launchers, and even a takeoff platform. Build it, admire it, and dive into an exciting sky-high adventure!
Why is the Thunder Chopper such a standout?
With 485 wooden pieces and interactive elements, this 3D model is a joy to assemble and play with. It’s designed in two parts: the helicopter itself and a launch platform that allows the Chopper to move as if it’s taking off. The electric motor powers the spinning blades and rotors, while a special mechanism opens the cabin doors. Also, the helicopter is armed with rocket launchers that can actually fire mini rockets.
Hey, gear up, pilot — the sky is calling!
The Thunder Chopper is a custom wooden 3D constructor that provides both a fun assembly experience and a real challenge, thanks to its clever internal mechanisms. With 485 pieces in the kit, this helicopter model can be assembled in 6-8 hours, striking the perfect balance of complexity (MASTERS level, 3 out of 5). It’s an exciting DIY project for experienced builders, but newbies will also complete it with no trouble, using our detailed, step-by-step manual.
This 3D model combines a realistic design with engaging functionality. The Chopper is equipped with spinning rotors and blades and moves along the landing pad to mimic a real takeoff. Activating it is simple — just flip the lever on top of the platform. Side-mounted rocket launchers add extra excitement, firing with the press of a button. As part of our Electro series, this model runs on AA batteries (please note: batteries are not included). The battery compartment is cleverly hidden in the platform under the helicopter.
Our cute wooden Thunder Chopper makes a fantastic gift for DIY puzzle enthusiasts, as
well as fans of sky adventures, helicopters, and piloting. Crafted entirely from sustainable plywood, every part of the Chopper is smooth to the touch and environmentally friendly. And of course, you won't need glue or any extra supplies — just fit the wooden pieces together and start playing!
Ich hab schon einige von diesen super Modellen und der Hubschrauber war bis jetzt das letzte. Ich bin immer wieder begeistert von diesen tollen Bausätzen👍👍👍👍
Ein sehr schönes und anspruchsvolles 3D-Puzzle. Alles passte hervorragend zusammen👍. Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht.

Heute möchte ich euch eine weitere Errungenschaft vorstellen!
Der Thunder Chopper (Hubschauber) von Woodtrick
Die Montage ist nicht ganz einfach! Wie man es von Woodtrick kennt sind die Platten von ausgezeichneter Qualität.
Der Hubschrauber gehört zur „Electric Serie“ und ist mit einem Elektromotor, rotierenden Rotorblättern, einem Heckrotor und Raketenwerfern ausgestattet.
Als besonders Highlight können die Raketenwerfern kleine Mini-Raketen abfeuern.
Alle 485 Teile passten gut zusammen und ließen sich ohne Probleme aus den Platten lösen. Ich hatte keinen Bruch.
Für alle kritischen Teile sind ausreichend Ersatzteile vorhanden.
Die Montageanleitung ist gut verständlich.
Schwierigkeitsgrad: Level 3,
Aber alle Modellbaufans werden mit einem tollen, detailreichen Modell belohnt
Ich kann dieses Modell nur empfehlen!!!!
And now we've finally finished the Thunder Chopper. It took a while; this retiree had other things to worry about. The quality of the Thunder Chopper is as good as ever, and the result is very successful. Only parts 180 through 150 of the two missile launchers have too much space and don't fit as nicely as designed!
I still have a Galaxy Marble Run on the shelf, but I hope something nice will be released this year. Isn't Wood Trick celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, and are you still paying attention to this?
Habe den Hubschrauber diese Woche fertig gestellt.
Wie immer muss ich sagen, Wood Trick ist das Beste.
Hubschrauber läuft, und ich warte auf das nächste Model.
Worked first time and made an effort to follow your very good instructions. Did a second run and one of the rotor blades flew of and landed about six feet away and glad I wasn’t in it’s path. When I investigated it would appear that as I fitted part 157 from sheet5 I may have damaged the clip on part 142(rotor blades). It came of when I rerun it the second time due to centrifugal force.
So I took the rotor head of and glued the rotors in and also I am considering wrapping a safety wire somehow as way of keeping them attached
No harm done but it could be a mistake on my part and did find 157 very hard to attach and I could have made it weak. Maybe you could advise to gently pull the rotor to test validity. I think it’s very good and worth the purchase
All the best, Denis B
I don’t write reviews, I expect stuff I buy to “do what it say on the tin”. I think credit where it due, so here goes; I’ve tried many other brand of wooden model kits, this is by far the best, incredibly clear documentation, excellent cutting, precise assembly, no ‘fettling’ to make bits fit. One criticism, I think you’ve missed a trick, some LEDS in the landing pad assy, would elevate model to another level. Great job! Thanks. Will be buying more.
Sehr schönes Projekt. Die Teile sind passgenau und lassen sich gut zusammenfügen. Auf die exakte Positionierung sich "spiegelnder" Teile ist unbedingt zu achten.
Sehr empfehlenswert
Très bonne expérience : excellente découpe (juste un petit rattrapage à faire sur une pièce car la pré-découpe n’avait pas été faite par le laser), plan précis, bois de qualité, …
Le résultat est bluffant.
Je recommande.
Bonsoir, je suis à mon deuxième hélico car j'ai du donner le 1er à un ami qui est tombé en admiration.
Je ne vous cache pas que le 1er m'avait donné du fil à retordre, mais c'était un réel plaisir.
J'ai acheté également un camion de pompier avec la grande échelle.
J'ai un aml pilote qui l'a également acheté lors de sa venue chez moi.
Cordialement
I studied transport and technology at university and I’ve always had a passion for engineering. And I gladly joined the WoodTrick team because here I can do all these cool things. I love to create! I believe that nothing is impossible if you have skills and a good imagination. I love everything we do, but especially the car designs. My favorite models are Monster track and Rover. Try them!
