Has anyone come across an H5/Dragonfly in approximately 1:100? I can't find anything so far.
Thanks

There is a kit that exists, but looks like you're going to struggle to find one of this old,old kit:

1/72 obviously a lot easier.

There's a a paper model in 1/48, it's a RAAF version. You could always resize it.

If you want a teeny-weensy one then there's an old Dinky diecast, that must be somewhere around 1/300. Bit rare and no doubt quite pricey these days. Everything else I can think of is 1/72.

There's 1/144 option on Shapeways for not crazy money:

The guy's done it in smaller scales, might be worth asking him if it's possible to do it in 1/100.
