Looks like the only functions are rotating blade connected to flat 4 engine using cam pieces and movable flaps. 

Also, it doesn't seem to have the common strobe light configures (red-green-white). Those lights appear in earlier small aircrafts, like 42040 Fire Plane. What a pity.

I think this is maybe the first time i've seen a flat4 engine in a lego set

Ok now this is exiting how the propellor mechanism works because you push on side that beam is this similar mechanism to the yellow technic fire plane

It was in the b model of 42070.

I don't really see it, but it would be awesome to have it.

I think think this looks cool for the size, something for a change, and has interesting mechanics. Wonder how smooth those cam parts let the propeller spin though, they do have some friction..

Is it not more likely that push beam adjusts the flappy bits on the wings?

This is clearly my favorite of the upcoming wave. It has only one real function, but we don't get such a push beam rotator function everyday, so it's interesting.

Also the size of the model meets the expectation for a 333 parts set, thanks to some good old long beams.

I would have been fine with another color scheme as I think I have enough white already. But it fits the topic so it's alright.

For me this is the best set from winter-spring wave.

Yupe! The first from TLG I guess...Cada already started producing them and 9L Flip-flops are tremendously useful.

Awesome! So they're not going to keep it to just 4N-1 increments. Hopefully we'll see 13L and 5L eventually.

Ironically, I was about 95% sure that the black one on the tail was a 9L, and I was getting all excited! Then I scroll down, see better pictures, and realize that it's an 11, but then I see that there's actually still a 9L in it, just in white!

That was my thought too, but nevertheless this is my favorite 2025 set so far.

Don't know; there are 16 tooth and blue 20 (or 12) tooth gear if I see it correctly on small image...

Aeroplanes are cool and this also looks like a sweet parts pack. I like it a lot.

Yeah! First I thought it's a 7L, but right. Now hoping for the 5L to appear next year as well!

The functions are cool and plenty for this size. Great gears pack too. For me the most interesting set from January.

Nice find! Didn't expect to see it to be honest, but that means a 13L isn't far behind.

It definitely makes sense to only have spur gears hear for the model, but it will seriously limit alternate building. Not even a single bevel gear? Damn! How are we supposed to build a helicopter from that?

Here is a partial part list of this set found in lego website :).

Nice that we have 20t clutch gears of that sort, las time they appeared was in the nacsar camaro if I'm not mistaken.
