JefH Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Love it. Be interested in seeing how this builds up. I've got a friend trying to sell me his non "hi-tech" version of this kit. Jeff Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber_County Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) Great cockpit, a word of warning, having built this MK V, test fit the fuselage to wing relationship with the cockpit in-situ but without fixing the cockpit in place. I had to “shave†quite a bit of material off the cockpit side frames for it to fit.... Edited June 16, 2018 by Bomber_County Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miloslav1956 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I did not have a problem with a cockpit in either of the fourteen Tempests. I always put him in the glued fuselage. Beware of Yahu dashboard, it must be on the sides a little trim. It is very wide. Rick K and Tolga ULGUR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolga ULGUR Posted June 18, 2018 Author Share Posted June 18, 2018 Some updates I have decided to use CMK resin seat and keep the kit's seat with belts for the next Tempest Bruce_Crosby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
