mpk Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Hi guys. I bought this 2 days ago. I just ordered this decal sheet. I am no phantom expert, so don't really know what to buy regarding choice of wheels, jet exhaust etc. I had a look on BNA's website and saw Phantom II wheels that didn't have the E option. For example, Aires F-4B/C/N Phantom II exhaust nozzles. I don't want to go too bonkers on AM, but some wheels, photo etch ip and seats would be nice. Thanks. mambodan72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) The wheels are the same as the other AF versions C/D/E/G, and there are a number of options out there. For exhausts, the E/F/G/J/S all use the same exhaust. The kit exhausts are undersized, but many of the aftermarket exhausts are too. Aires is undersized and people have said the the Eduard exhausts are also. The Serria Hotel exhausts are correct, but are probably unobtanium. The GT Resin exhausts may work.

Darren Howie Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Aires, Cutting edge burners are the same size with same issues. If yiu can track down some correct size burner cans it makes a very nice visual difference to the Tamiya F-4’s. It really adds to the look having the bigger exhausts. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no sign of the exhausts at GT. No luck with Serria hotel. 2 hours ago, phantomdriver said: Aires, Eduard Brassington all do wheels/ cans for the f-4E... Apparently too small. 1 hour ago, ScottsGT said: Intakes. Order a set from Dmold. In stock! I have added Master models long nose version pito. Armory production weighted wheels.

Darren Howie Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 If you do one thing get correct sized exhausts. Unlike a lot of mods when parked next to an unmodded kit it looks far beefier and the base kit looks quite anaemic by comparison. Quite impressed by how a couple of mm changed just how bulky the rear end looks now. If i add one thing to a Tamiya F-4 now its always correctly sized exhausts. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark P Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Yes, they are. But are they any good and appropriately sized to fit to the F-4C? Mark Proulx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
