This will be an OOB build, brush painted with Revell Aquacolor unless stated otherwise. I will only be mentioning any problems/issues or observations rather than a running commentary. ![]() ![]() If using the decal for the digital display on the I/P it would be better to cut them into three sections as the decal is sightly too small to fit correctly in one peice, I ended up painting the screens as directed in the instructions. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It is suggested that 20g of weight is put in the nose, in the absence of Depleted Uranium, I packed out the fuselage with blue tack forward of the main wheel pivot point plus some BB pellets in the nose cone, a test seems to imply it should be sufficient. ![]() Only a little filler needed on the wing/fuselage join, mainly on the forward 2cm. ![]() ![]() After a couple of hours work looking Tyhoonish, a few seam lines to sort but overall goes together very well and I am particularly impressed with the intake area which while quite complicated has produced the most seamless intake I have managed on this plane. |

I'm a bit circumspect about using tack for embedding weights, some brands contain solvent that can leach through over a period of time. |

From my experience so far Blue Tac is pretty inert. Had some in models for several years now with no ill effects. Although saying that may just be tempting fate. |
