Title: Karaya 1/48 Albatros D.XI
Post by: hiddeous1973 on February 03, 2019, 09:46:54 PM

This will be entry, one of the many amazing resin kits from Karaya.
It will be the 2nd prototype, with the camouflaged body and lozenge wings and tail (Aviattic offcourse).

It will ba a while before I begin, I have a fairly sized project underway and I do only one thing at the time, but will post right now so my entry will not be too late...

Making a great Model from a rough kit is your Forte. I am sure this one will be spectacular!!

The other variant of this kit, the first prototype, resides in my stash but I have not build a aircraft in resin yet. So I will watch with interest!
Have fun,
Frank

sadly references are hard to find online. the instructions point to an Albatros Productions book which I do not have access to.
Is there anyone who has? I am looking for 1 detail that is completely missing in the kit, there are no parts or instructions for the control wires to the tail surfaces, most importantly the rudder.

can anyone help me with these lines? where they exit the fuselage and where the connect to (I have a notion where the go to the elevator)

many thanks, Hidde from Holland

 Hidde,
An excellent choice of subject my friend. It's always good to see the lesser known aircraft and equally interesting type included. The best of luck to you in the GB.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette
