Dan Paxton Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) Sir, One thing I noticed, not huge by any means, are what we in aviation maintenance call cannon plugs. Cannon plugs on all electrical wires or cables. The back of a radio, where the wire "plugs in" will have a Cannon plug....much like the wires that plug in the back of your computer, only more sturdy. The av cart with the large cables for external power would have a quick connect at one end and be part of the cart (no plug) this is a stunning beauty and I'm glad I found your build...I learn so much and get so motivated.

shark64 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 (edited) Back on the tractor. Using white insignia instead of flat white. Also painted second tow bar to go with the tractor. Had to shorten the tow bar and create the bracket connecting to the helo back wheel.

Hawkwrench Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 You really should write a how to book that talks about your scratchbuilding, and your mind blowing paint jobs. I'm being serious about it! You're level of realism is just awesome! Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
