Ali62 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Hi Guys I have just placed to new sets on my website for purchasing, both are with the casters, but are available for ordering as of now. The first is a set of brass undercarriage and the second set is a set of undercarriage doors that can be used either with the brass parts or the standard kit parts. For pictures and all the details please visit my website as below. Thanks to all for the continued support. http://www.aerocraftmodels.com cheers Ali Luca, mungo1974, Out2gtcha and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Excellent, those look great. Should be great sellers once the word gets out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony in NZ Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Nice one Ali!! Any chance we could see some A-4 legs, everything out there is terrible without major surgery....or if you can lay your hands on the Hasegawa Hi-Grade kit ones. Great news on the Phantom ones though Cheers Anthony Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali62 Posted September 28, 2018 Author Share Posted September 28, 2018 Hi Guys Thanks, well I do hope that the word gets out fairly fast and all the people that reacted in the poll saying they wanted them start placing orders, as production is now underway. Anthony, I will look at any options as long as I know what you guys are wanting and needing, then also I need help and guidance as to what kit they are wanted / needed for and also then any additional information that can be given to improve the undercarriage. Also I need to get some kind of indication that the set is going to be purchased by more than just a handful of people. So far Kagemusha (Andy) and Thierry Laurent have assisted with information and parts for this set to be developed. So if you do want or need something then please just follow a request with further information, as I say no promises until, there is a bit more than one or two asking for a set. cheers Ali Harold and Anthony in NZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottsGT Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Happy days!!! Thanks brother!! I just ordered 3 sets. I would have ordered 6, but I'm pushing my luck with the wife since I just dropped $450 this week on wood working tools. I'll let the dust settle and pony up for more at a later date.

Royboy Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 A nice metal undercarriage for the Revell Mk1 Spitty would be well received from me! I would think most modellers doing the kit or who have completed the kit knows how fragile it is once done. It's another idea in the bag for you to consider! Cheers.

The last thing I would want is for someone to spend lots of hours and money on something that wont sell more than a handful of. I seem to recall Ernie at G factor many many years ago was going to do it for the Trumpeter kit and lots of people responded wanting a set. At the time lots of other releases were being announced and we never saw it. Maybe Harold could give us an idea on how many wheel sets he sold? This might indicate poss numbers? Also my RNZAF conversion for the Trumpeter kit has a LOT of people messaging me asking how to get one when its done. I can provide all the photos and measurements you could possibly want Cheers Anthony Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottsGT Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Sweet Baby Jesus! Mine were just delivered by the post office. These are extremely fine detailed works of art! Could make jewelry out of them. A big sincere thanks for producing these, and I'll be ordering more soon. Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think they would be a good seller. Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Got mine today. Thanks, Alistair! They look great! Any recommendations on tools to remove the casting stubs? I don’t want to start tearing up nippers or files that are softer than the gear metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottsGT Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Never seen snips or files softer that brass. Clip and file away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael931080 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Got my two sets today! Absolutely stunning work. Looking forward to using these on a future F-4 build. On a side note, the casting are absolutely impeccable! The cleanest I have seen in a very long time. Cheers, Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
