Thanks Lukas...
yesterday I started the 2nd cockpit, rigging of the side frames is done.
Tonite no modeling, I'll take my loved one out to celebrate our 10th anniversary (10 yrs ago we got engaged, now we're married since 2009 and keep celebrating both the anniversaries, you know how Italians are made... just looking for reasons to celebrate!!!)

 Antonio,
Absolutely beautiful work my old friend. You certainly do have a scale Hanriot assembly line going on. Well done.
Highest Regards,

Hallo everybody!

I am posting a few new result, I did more but not on visible details, I started refining some piece of the tail sub assembly, the propellers to make them fit into the Taurus Le Rhone 9J, and some more study... the visible plastic is shown below!



Here are the three finished cockpits


The pictures and the drawings I have show how the controls for the rudder are double cables and come out of the fuselage from a small hole in the fuselage sides near the tail.
The control horns on the rudder have three oles, 2 on the forward side to hook the rudder controls and one behind them to hook a structural cable strengthenng the rudder on both faces.

The elevators control was hooked to a control horn at 90° with respect to the horizonal plan. It was fixed to a tube holding together the 2 elevators.



That said (pant! pant!) I glued the elevators control cable to a solid plasticard block, that will prevent the cockpit sub assembly to slip backwards.


Here are the three fuselages with the control cables in place.

I used a .8mm diam. plasticard rod to re-create the tail structure inside the fuselage. Once closed the fuselage it will be trimmed to fit the tail sub assembly measurements.

This is the drawing I posted earlier.


Happy Sunday everybody.

Ciao and thanks for looking!!!!!

I missed this tour de force.  Spectacular!  And now I'll see how things should be painted!  ;)

Thank you Dan!
I hope I will be able to paint them right!
I am not that expert and often my interpretation proves faulty...

;-)

Thanks also to Martin, Des and Gregory for having a look and take time to support...

I am facing a lazy period and have some difficulty in finding energy to sit down at the workbench... your support gives me some extra fuel!!!

Ciao

Antonio

Hi Antonio,

Again your multi-build work is a joy for the eye and very inspiring too! Your documentation and preparation for the job is as usual extraordinary. You took a blitz-start too and the produced work is awesome. If there were kits in 1/32 I had since long build one. Keep up the great work my friend!

Kind regards
Patrick
