seiran01 4,690 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I was looking over my SOW gear sets this morning, the first two I ordered that arrived a week or two ago and got pushed aside with the craziness of life. In one word, all I can say is WOW! I bought the gear for the Trumpy P-38 and the Revell Ju-88, and man oh man, what an improvement they are. Looking forward to getting my hands on additional sets soon, seeing the Skyhawks are on the way I'll be grabbing a few of those Thanks Damian!!

SOW = Synthetic Ordenance Works in other words the company who makes these sets - they got their own section in the sponsors forum sections Stevepd, Out2gtcha, D.B.

BiggTim 6,716 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Agreed! Absolutely fantastic stuff, makes SAC look like a joke. And better than G-Factor, too, IMO. D.B. Andrus and LSP_K2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Out2gtcha 35,848 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 The main thing for me about DBs sets in there is NO need to paint any oleos any more! Painted oleo struts really look poor IMHO, and the SOW sets really do away with that need, and you get the added bonus of the strength of hardened wire inside. LSP_K2 and D.B.

LSP_K2 25,014 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I'll be glad to jump on this bandwagon. I have a few sets now too, and they're all excellent. You can be confident that Damian does them right. D.B. Andrus and Out2gtcha 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Radub 4,340 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I have a few SOW undercarriage sets and I agree that they are superb. A great idea, a great product. Radu LSP_K2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I always use foil on my oleos, looks better then paint. I havent tried SOW yet but time will come soon. Out2gtcha and LSP_K2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Im a big foil guy too.............but a lot of the time the oleos are so small, or so thin, foil really doesn't work well, so this is really welcome IMHO. LSP_K2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
