Recommended Posts

Yeap, I'm too fast and the man want to slow me down......... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I like, that's a good one.

 

Hey Paul,

 

For the rudder you probably talking that huge gap at the bottom.....?,  just notice it, didn't had to with my first Scooter cause of the Wolfpack conversion was right on.

but as for the slat, I'll have to check your built my friend, I didn't know about that one....... :hmmm:

 

Maybe I went true but don't remember, there are so many nice built to read that most of the time, you read them double speed...

 

If you could drop me the link, I would really appreciate........ :please:

 

Dan.

 

PS: did you get my message for my 'Sizzlin Suzy' F-100D.......?

Dan, don't forget to fix the  wing slat "Step"  at the leading edges of the wings under the slats if your'e going to. The rudder needs some "attention" too.. I fixed both issues on my build and it really improves the look and is quick and easy.

When i did my A-4E for the GB, i followed Pauls method. Simple to do and adds so much to any A-4 build. Rudder gap simple fix, too. Looks wonky if not filled.

Oh boy, I'm finally back for the last strech to Dec. 31st.......

 

It is so very easy to get distracted by other project and so hard to stay focus on a single one........unbalievable.

I've been sinking for the past 4 weeks into an F104C, a Harrier Gr7, a Ju-88 A4, Mig-29M and a Mitchell B-25J...... :mental:  :frantic:

 

After going over Kai Cruze and Harv F-4D build, told my wife to hide them so I don't jump start those two......  :crying:

 

No wonder I can finish in time........ :doh:

So, here some progress I made last week and the first step to my therapy............ :deadhorse:

 

Modification suggested by Paul went very well and very easy, did add a little strip and look a lot better that way...
