This weapon is a massive sword, made out of the rotor blade of a Vertibird. It was inspired by a similar weapon carried by Emily Blunt's character in the 2014 film Edge of Tomorrow. The name is a reference to Arnold Schwarzenegger's meme-worthy delivery of the line, “Get to the chopper!” from the 1987 film Predator.

Parts Used

I started with the base game mesh for Lily's Vertibird Blade and separated the blade itself. I then added a handle made out of pieces from the Thermic Lance.

Dr. Quarton's Notes

The terminal entry in Dr. Quarton's laboratory notes the following:

Project #M-285-Q - "Da Choppah"

Despite the abysmal state of the world above, recycling is still quite
important. "Waste not, want not," is what I always say. I managed to
acquire a broken Vertibird engine for another project, but the blade
was taking up valuable space in the workshop, so I decided to do something
with it. Not all too practical, perhaps, but it was good welding practice.
