Special Hobby X-15A-2 lower rudder

[rjones726]

I've been thinking about how I want to build this kit and keep coming back to an inflight display. A plane this fast and sexy shouldn't be sitting on a clunky dolly and nose wheel IMHO. Anyway, does anyone know if there is an aftermarket lower rudder available. I have several references and making it is within my capability but I like to know my options

 

Thanks,

Rob

No, there is none as far as I know.

 

Except the:

- long OOP Cutting Edge corrected stabs;

- so-so OOP resin cockpit from an obscure company that was not really recommendable;

- low production set of more detailed and accurate decals only sold on ebay;

 

I do not think any other aftermaket resin set was ever released for any of the three Special Hobby X-15 kits.

That's what I thought. 

I pulled the box off the shelf last night after posting and Lo and behold there appears to be parts for a full lower rudder on the sprue. I guess I'll have to save my scratch building skills for something else

Thank You.

v/r,

Rob
