Scott you have really shown your skills with this build so far ( impressed with your solutions to the weight.


Still think this aircraft if in service a few years early could have turned the tides of the nightfighter scene


Really well built


Regards

Thanks gents, you know come to think on it now, iam going to re check the instructions just to see if they have suggested adding weight to the nacelles and I've just missed it. If not I wonder how they work out their weights for these kits.

Hi folks, ok nervous moment iam now officially freaked out about the under carriage .......... So I have applied epoxy resin to every part of the gear and am going to allow it 24 hrs to dry, here are some pics.... Wish me luck.

The main fault with the undercarriage apart from the weight problem, is the nose strut is in the fully extended position as if in the air.


After perusing several photo's you can see it is quite pronounced.


Enjoying watching this build as I have one in my stash with full after market add ons including the engines.
