homerojr Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 However a little late on the comments (as I started to build a F-7UM, I´m in the process of researching and just now came across your topic), I must say it turned out great! And thanks for sharing your step-by-step. Mine has had issues too joining the front and rear fuselage no matter glueing intakes to fuselage first, or intakes to front and after glueing to rear fuselage. No big deal though, just a little sanding and puttying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mlicari Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 Thanks guys! You're right, homerojr, I tried a variety of assembly methods (on my -3M) and nothing worked to make those parts fit tighter. But, it's really the only thing on the entire kit that requires a little bit of extra effort. On the whole, a very fine kit. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Julien (UK) Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Very nice!Mike, does this particular kit also come with extra parts to make the normal, non-recce version of the Cutlass? Thanks in advance. Jackman I am told the newly released Normal Cutlass kits also have the recce nose in them as well. Mike, this looks great, managed to get one of these so thanks for the heads up on the join. Julien Quote Link to post Share on other sites
