Tolga ULGUR Posted January 3, 2017 Author Posted January 3, 2017 After a short! break: Engine installed into the cowling parts. mpk and Whitey 2
alaninaustria Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Great job so far!! Don't forget to fill in the seam on the four engine cowling latches that are right up at the front end of the cowling leading edge! Cheers Alan Edited January 3, 2017 by alaninaustria mpk 1
Tolga ULGUR Posted January 3, 2017 Author Posted January 3, 2017 There is a level difference between the fuselage and cowling at the bottom. As you can see alignment is not good. So it needs some surgery to solve this problem. Cutting the front section protrusion of the fuselage and re-install it 1 or 2 mm down is enough. MikeMaben, Joel_W, Shaka HI and 3 others 6

LSP_K2 Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Good looking progress here. I have the same kit coming, and really look forward to it. mpk 1

Cutting the front section protrusion of the fuselage and re-install it 1 or 2 mm down is enough.Yes, it's an easy fix that everyone who builds this kit should know about. Since they are apparently never going to correct the tooling, Hasegawa really should put something in the instructions about it — not everyone reads LSP! Nice work so far. Makes me want to build another! LSP_K2 and mpk 2

alaninaustria Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Thanks Alan, Sorry but I did not understand exactly where you are talking about. Regards Have a look at the front of the yellow cowling - you will see the four latches at the front of the cowling: http://www.largescaleplanes.com/articles/article.php?aid=591 Cheers Alan mpk, LSP_K2 and Shaka HI 3
