You need 22 magnetic tiles.
Colors are flexible. The shapes and quantities are the useful part.

Build together
Follow 5 visual stages.
Check that your set includes two small squares and one rectangle, as well as the full-size squares and three triangle types listed above. Build the central body first, then follow all five pictures to add the smaller shapes and upper assembly. Colors do not need to match.
- Stage 1
Join three squares to start the helicopter body.
- Stage 2
Add two squares and two right triangles around the lower body.
- Stage 3
Extend the body with three squares and two isosceles triangles.
- Stage 4
Fit the two small squares, two equilateral triangles, and rectangle as shown.
- Stage 5
Add the last five squares to complete the helicopter.
