Out2gtcha Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Thanks Juraj! Things starting to really shape up now! Looks really good to me. The pit does look a tad on the chunky/clunky side, but that honestly is not a huge issue, as I'm sure its likely not as chunky in person. One can slim things down with some sanding sticks too, and Im sure the AM will come eventually as well. Rick Griewski and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Looks excellent. Looks like all it will need is some Airscale instrument decals, some Barracuda stencils, and some HGW seatbelts to bring it all together. Can't wait for this one to be on the market. I'm sure Master is already prepping cannon barrels for it. Matt Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master currently offers both types. scvrobeson and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those were Mk.2s, while the Whirlwind used Mk.1s. Might be some slight differences between them, at least on length. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Eagle Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I'm so ready for this to show up. I know not many were produced, but it is a neat looking aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt I will not show the cannon bay open so only the spring recoil type on the front end will matter to me. scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
