Free download for all CG Cookie Citizens: this game-ready two person transport is the perfect vehicle for any sci-fi environment. At just over 44k triangles and textured at 4k resolution, it strikes the balance between detail and performance.
The model is separated into 6 objects that all share the same textures. The propellers are separated for ease of animation, and the windshield is separated so that it can be given a transparent material in Unity. That allows the rest of the body to be calculated as opaque, which will render more efficiently.

I can see quite a bit of extra geometry on the interior of the ship. You be able to get it down to 30k tris if you clean it up. Just a thought.
The center of mass appears to be so far forward of the lift rotors that I'm wondering how the ship doesn't nose dive ;-)
This model is at least 4 years old, maybe more. Why has it suddenly raised its head again?
It was never textured or retopologized before. The original model was a high-res asset that wasn't even remotely usable in games. This version is one that Jonathan Lampel has spent time retopologizing and texturing so that it can be dropped into a game project.
Just saying, why would anyone buy this? never mind its old, this is clearly a Hero asset, not something that should just be bought right?
A tree pack is what should be bought, no one cares about a tree pack, but a helicopter? that is a design element that the devs should be making...?
The resource is available at no extra charge for CG Cookie Citizens; it's not explicitly for sale. The intention is to provide high quality assets that members can use for any purpose, be it learning or commercial projects.
