kkarlsen Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Hye! Euuuuuh, which version do you want to do with the bmw003? Do you want to build the V6? The others were not with a jumo004? Amities Fab I've not yet decided on the subject, still in the researching phase ;-) Right now I'm trying to get my bearings into the different types A-B-C, who flew with what, when and where? But I absolutely love the prototypes and the dolly, the V8 is definitely in the picture, as it was the first aircraft with four jet engines to fly. This would however mean a larger conversion, with a narrower fuselage (20cm) a smaller rudder etc... Who knows, eventually this project may escalate into a dual build....

levier Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 The 003 engines will limit what version you model pretty seriously. kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkarlsen Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) The 003 engines will limit what version you model pretty seriously. Your right: V6, V8, V13 V19 or C models Kent Edited February 3, 2018 by kkarlsen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkarlsen Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Latest additions for the Arado project... Zoukei-Mura Kettenkrad + Power cart, Profimodeller 1/32 crew and Luftwaffe hand barrow. So this is what I will attempt to do: One of the prototypes of the Arado Ar 234A with the characteristic 'take off dolly'... It's a massive conversion, and I'm not sure if I can get it a 100% correct, so I may have to cut some corners and swallow one or two camels ;-) I've scaled and printed the drawings from this magnificent book of the A models... Haven't decided absolutely on which one I will do, but right now I'm going for the V8 the first four-engined jet aircraft in the world.

monthebiff Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Now this is going to beone awesome build, great idea Kent. Regards. Andy kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattlow Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 As you're going to so much trouble with this, I'd have a trawl around some other builds where details on the FLY kit are discussed. I can't recall which build it was, but there's one which shows how far off the landing flaps are (too small I believe) and a host of other panel line niggles. Of course, with such a deep conversion, some/many of these issues will be swept away in the conversion process. Matt kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattlow Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 If you can find the panel line discussion, I would very much appreciate it, thanks: Kent Hi Kent I had a good old internet trawl but cannot for the life of me find the build! What I do recall was someone showing an excellent photo of the NASM 234's wing sat on a trolley giving a fantastic view of the upper (or lower) wing surface... With the refs you've got/are getting I'm sure you'll have the necessary info to make corrections shuld you choose to. Matt PS, if I find the article I'll link it for you.

mattlow Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) OK, got it... Guess where..? HERE of course... Steve Gallacci's build. http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=60009&page=1 The other thing Steve picked up on was the 'fat' wing leading edge. With your uber conversion, I suspect these two things will pale into relative insignificance..

kkarlsen Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) Been to the library... It's a nightmare to get the facts straight. The amount of inconsistencies are staggering...
