Fanes Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Final update (or so I thought) What was left to do? repair the wheel hubs and attach the landing gear repair the scratched belly add the exhausts paint and install the nav lights get the drop tanks in place antenna mast and antenna wire shoot the RFI photos Well, I thought everything was done right. But during arangement for the glamour shots, I noticed that the wheels weren't as solid as I would have liked. The opening in the Grey Matter wheels is quite oversized for the Trumpeter axle. So I used 5 min epoxy and hoped for the best. This didn't work out of course since even epoxy can't do magic on a butt joint. I'm already working on a solution (hacking up the Trumpy hubs). Until then there's only one quick photo with a weird camber angle... One more todo I'd like to add: What will my next project be? - I'm looking for a fun build before I return to my pink photo recon Spit Cheers Joachim scvrobeson, patricksparks, HB252 and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
