F16 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Hi all , Using Trumpeter's 1/32 kit, Me-262A-2a, I'm trying to make the Me-262A-U2 glass nose, V484 or V555 bomber version. What are the metric measurements of the new front wood section, from the point where it was fitted to the fuselage to the glass nose tip, where the bomber's sights would be? Without counting the probes?

Kagemusha Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 There was a conversion long oop, but if you post a request in the Traders Board you might get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am slightly disappointed in the quality control of this conversion . All the clear resin parts are far too big and to make things doubly bad all the grey resin is far too small . I should have seen the warning sines of very few completed builds posted on the net and a few starting with a great gush only to abruptly end ..." So I still need some measurements please...
