Rick Griewski Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 The N1K2 props look better to me but the spinner looks wrong. I will move along using the N1K1 propellers and spinner.

Rick Griewski Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 I have started the conversion of the N1K2 cockpit. Fits very well with some differences to address. More later. Thanks for looking. Landrotten Highlander, dennismcc, Alain Gadbois and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Does the N1K2 engine fit inside the N1K1 cowling fairly well? Just curious to know. Thx, I'm working on repairing my old 90's build N1K1 that I have moved around several times and would like to add a few bit to it to bring her back around to something decent looking. Following your build with interest. Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Griewski Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 I appreciate your comment Marus. Scribing 45 year old plastic is tedious and time consuming. That is why I made myself do this step first. Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Molitor Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I had the initial Hasegawa release N1K2 in my hands while working the Chattanooga regional contest a few weeks ago. For some strange reason I put the kit back on a vender table. $35 for the kit. I could kick myself for not picking it up. I have a built up N1K1 I did back in the 90's and it could use a few update which you are doing to your George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have made much progress but I have ImageShack problems. Dufuss robot thinks my Basic account for one year is a trial account. The one year is not over. I am locked out. please move this build to the Works in Progress section Thanks Landrotten Highlander 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
