A beautiful piece of work, Terri. What else might we expect from someone with your modelling skills?

Best wishes

It's been a while since I last dropped in Terri but what I just saw is very impressive, this has turned out to be a really nice looking model.

She's a beauty Terri! I particularly like the tail colours in concert with the lozenge.

Cheers,

Well I wish my talents would help with memory , in my hast on getting the top wing mount ...I forgot to drill the holes for the control cables on the fuselage and under the top wing and the holes for the landing gear bracing wires

Thanks for dropping by guy's , up date soon

Sounds like you need to go back to basics, Stretched sprue or hard wire

Terri,

how did you succeed with attaching the landing gear?

Terri,

how did you succeed with attaching the landing gear?

Stefan

Made out very well Stefan . Didn't have any issue with it . I used a slow setting glue for the slots in the axle wing . Once every thing was lined up I tacked in place until it was fully dried and finished off the rest of the bonds with super glue . Even got it rigged until I drop it and broke the landing gear , have it glue back , but now I need to re-rig it again . Hence my delay on an up date . I got frustrated and being working on my P-40C .

Only really fit problems I had so far in the inter struts . The front strut on the end needs to be trimmed by 2mm . Opening the hole in the wing so it will sit deeper in will not work , not even space unless you want to drill into the top part of the wing , something I didn't want to happen . Better safe then sorry and having to patch lozenge afterwards .
