Nice work, Bertl.  Did the MS type N have a round tubular metal framework?

Hello @ kensar,

thank you very much.
The very sparse pictures in the www show a cockpit with round tubes - I assume that is metal.
There are also some nice CAD drawings on the web, also there you can see a structure made of tubes.

The plywood floor was made from Evergreen plastic sheet.
Unfortunately, this floor is not included in the kit.

The pilot's seat and the seat cushion were also completely redone.

The next step, the creation of the Rudderbar
The thing was scratch built from plastic, brass tube and copper wire.
Also the bearing for the rudder bar was built from scrap plastic and resin screws.

With paint, the rudder bar and plywood floor look much more realistic.
The steelwires for the rudder were created from 0.10mm fishing line.

The rudder pedal was movably mounted on the cockpit floor.

Here the underside of the floor in neutral position:

Knowing this build, I can only recommend everyone to secure their chin!
It's simply unbelievable what's still to come.

Enjoy the show!

Bertl,

Thank you for sharing your techniques.  The spinner I never would have thought to do, but it really adds to the model.  I look forward to the continuation!

I saw it (in the German forum) and I completely understand what will follow.

A few small parts from the aftermarket I will use, otherwise the model will be built strictly out of the box -

Bertl definitely the kit is made OOB, since you use the fuselage, the wings, the rudder, the wheels, the propeller and the engine.
I honestly admire your builds.
