oppenheimer Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) Hi guys,as you may know i have posted some pictures of the cockpit already, this is my new proyect, i hope it will turn ok, this time i will build in a different sequence, i will start with all the smal pieces like cockpit, engine, landing gear, doors , and extra aftermarket pieces then i will start putting all together, so in the beggining you only will see pictures of this parts then will come the build itself.I started with the EDUARD resin cockpit modified so it will be a 1A, here are some pictures too bad that most of the details will be hidden once the cockpit is close in the fuselage, that is why i took this picturesthis is the model engine, just added the wires, the exhaust is just dry fit at the moment, but the joint of the exhaus wont be visible thanks to the cowling flap doors also added the accesories gear box to the back of the engine, some of it will be visible after it is done one modification will be the removal of the left side access panel for the portion between the engine and the fuel tank Edited June 26, 2015 by oppenheimer Anthony in NZ, Harrison90, tomv87 and 2 others 5

Fooesboy Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 I love it! The cockpit looks great. Looking forward to seeing it come together.
Loic Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 What a tremendous start on this pit !! I also see that you plan to use the engine accessory kit I am all head over feet as this is the first time I will see one being built online ! Hope you will like it and I will be following with GREAT interest

Guest Peterpools Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Jorge Awesome work- the detailing and weathering is exquisite. Keep 'em coming Peter
oppenheimer Posted April 6, 2015 Author Posted April 6, 2015 little update, the after market engine accesory section almost done, need to add some wires and hoses also the tail gear housing painted, we all know that most of it wont be visible again, but had to be painted and the fuselage ready to be closed, with the Eduard resin cockpit module in place Vandy 1 VX 4 and tomv87 2
oppenheimer Posted April 12, 2015 Author Posted April 12, 2015 Hi guys, not much done so far, just finished both main gear and tires, to me they look ok, need the opinion if something is missing or wrong Also i managed to close the fuselage and the engine accessory compartment is almost done, some minor touch up to do Anthony in NZ and tomv87 2
David Hansen Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) I think the undercarriage looks very nice. I just mounted my U/C struts in my Corsair today. Keep in mind the clearance between the side of the tyre and the forward "spade" door is VERY close, as in, maybe the width of a #2 pencil. My Barracuda tyres have just been cleaned up and are drying out prior to painting tomorrow. david Edited April 12, 2015 by David Hansen
LSP_Kevin Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Excellent work, Jorge. Something to aspire to. Kev
