discussion Eduard He-280

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

According to the notes on the box there were only 9 of these ever built, so here's mine

The kit itself went together really well, until it came to the decals these just disintegrated on contact with water!! I sprayed some gloss varnish over the rest and managed to hold them together enough to mount.

Painted with Tamiya paints I used BMF to mask the canopy and used the resin interior and PE that came in the box.View attachment 71354

Very nicely done Adrian top marks from me

This was the main contender against Willi Messerschmitt's Me-262.

It also had terrifically low ground clearance and shock absorbers not quite up to the task.

Shot down by power politics.

A great build Adrian of an interesting subject I found this clip on Youtube of one of it's test flights. The accompanying music is a bit odd but an interesting short film.
