dennismcc Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 This is looking like a nice hybrid, I'm surprised that the HB and Hasegawa parts fit so well. Cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Dennis Well, some trimming was needed on the HB frame. The Hasegawa fuselage is thinner towards the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nose_Art Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 this is the Hasegawa windshield on the Hobbyboss fuselage. I like the Hasegawa fuselage but don't like the HB fuselage, so..... But Hobbyboss has some good bits and bobs and the control surfaces are separated so thus a bash! DougN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nose_Art Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 I like what I see Art, though to paraphrase one of your sig. quotes "I am confused and don't understand the situation!". Can't get a handle on exactly what/how you're planning the model. Max I am just using the Hasegawa fuselage and wing, and then throwing in whatever I like from the Hobbyboss kit. If your confused that's easy to understand, so am I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nose_Art Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 we cut out the ailerons on the Hasegawa wing and fit the HB ailerons because the HB ailerons were already separated. and then marked were the hinges are with tape. these just show how we mark the hinges on the wing first, then transfer the hinge line to the ailerons, the ailerons are not glued together. and then make the slot for the hinge Shaka HI and geedubelyer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nose_Art Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 we start with a dremel and a wide cut off wheel, then we use a very small file to cut the slot. and then we add some hinges, they are overlong but the correct width. geedubelyer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nose_Art Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 fitting the flap section on the upper wing, need to mark the hole for the flap indicator. The red dot marks the spot for the indicator a trial fit of the RH aileron, not to shabby geedubelyer and Shaka HI 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Nice - really like the idea of combining the Hasegawa fuselage with the Hobbyboss kit - makes a lot of sense IMHO... Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phartycr0c Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 That is great work. I too will be interested to see how the hybridising of the two kits works out in terms of interchangability. Two kits of the same subject should just be interchangeable right? erm perhaps not. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
