Mark M Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 guys ive just done an inbox review of the Revell Bell x-1 just thought id share it on here https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/mainly_military/kit-review-1-32-revell-bell-x-1-t10962.html Tony T, Erwin and Out2gtcha 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 So my Pactra cockpit green and my Floquill orange are still perfect after all these years. Really cool would have been to sample weathered areas with the same fan deck. Rick Mark M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravo52 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 That's right Rick, we now know for certain the plane was orange and green. Mark M and Rick Griewski 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Thanks for the review. Was the canopy framing on the real thing proud or flush? It looks a tiny bit like a minor affliction of Airfixitis. I wish they'd made the Douglas Skyrocket and Stiletto to the same basic standard. I have the Special Hobby X-15 and love this rocketry (including the 1960s-1970s lifting body hardware).

Hacker Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 l have couple question here. One was there any update sets made for this ? Was there any build done on here or any articles online? Hacker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 It even comes with the broomstick Yeager needed to open the door, because he fell off a horse the day before. it is good kit. Although I did serious work on the exhaust. Look for pics of that and you see why. And I scratched in all panellines, Not much work, It is a simple plane. Made seat belts and wiring and as mentioned the rear end and it is a good model. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotsman Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 There was a CE Decal sheet , that provided markings fro the X-1 post the Yeager flights , finished in White , with NACA markings - just something a little different if you don't fancy Orange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 As already written the kit is sound. The only area that really asks for improvement is the exhausts part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
