IMAM Ro43 1/32 scratch-built

[baffozac]

A big thank you gentlemen but you will make me blush !

 

 

After a few hours. I took the opportunity to mould the fasteners and the base of the masts.

A friend lent me a propeller blade to make the master. It’s not easy to find a propeller of this size turning left.

 

 

it’s already less empty.

 

Be well !!!!!

Most impressive work going on here.  

[Gazzas]

Love that engine!

[baffozac]

So, we keep moving forward :

 

 

Propeller Blade and Hub Casting.

 

 

The small screws (0,7 mm hex) come from T2M.

 

 

The propeller hub and the rear support of the oil radiator are completed.

 

 

Tailpipes. The long tube will be molded and then modified to have the right and left.

 

 

The tubes are bent under very hot water.

Checking is essential to see if the tubes pass well between the masts of the float and if the propeller does not chop the float !

For now it’s good !

[Starfighter]

Wow, wow and wow! C'est extrêmement impressionnant ce que tu fais!

Trip me out.

Hello gentlemen,

 

 

 

Last details added to the upper wings before the unifucation

 

 

Exhaust clamps and some Archer rivet lines.

 

 

 

The trolley used when the plane was on the ground.  There is a very good plan in the aircraft manual.

Too bad there’s not the same thing for the catapult of the boat...........

Have you seen this publication? If it doesn't include scale drawings of the catapult I'm positive Kagero have some.

Hi, many thanks for your link.

I would like to find a plan as detailed as this one:
