Phantom FOD covers

[daveoh]

Hi 

I'm making 2 revell F4 phantom's and was wondering if the aries quickboost F4 intake FOD covers designed for the Tamiya kit fit the revell F4 intakes. 

I've asked this question on other aircraft websites and Facebook groups with no answer. Thought I'd try this modelling forum .

Thanks

Dave.

If I recall correctly, Harold makes them for both kits.

I don't think the Tamiya and Revell FOD covers are swappable. They have always been available separately. I think the Revell openings are a bit larger and slightly different shape.

Indeed. Revell ones are far too large.

As Thierry said, way too large.

I made them for both kits, not even close.

Wow they are different I didn't realize they were so different in size. 

Thanks Harold I won't be using aries quickboost sets then.
