dekon70 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Last week a grabbed one of the last Caracals Greyhound sheets and decided I would build a Greyhound. Any tips, tricks or pitfalls I should watch out for? Also, going to build it all closed up and wings extended if that matters. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 If its anything like the E-2C it needs a lot of nose weight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zark Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Good luck with your built, you'll need it...I did!!! First of all do a lot of dryfitting of the main wing structure and the horizontal tail unit with the fuselage...there area a few "issues" there. Add the engine nacelles after you paint them and decal them and is going to be far more easy to paint and decal the fuselage as well with those two "missing". Which one are you going to built?? By the way thats my model: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dekon70 Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Wow Zark, that looks great. I only hope mine comes out 1/4 as good as yours. I'm going to do the VRC-40 50th Anniversary Scheme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nightiemission Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 If its anything like the E-2C it needs a lot of nose weight. Shameless plug time. I have a weight for this kit that will keep it on all three. Check my post on the buy&sell forum. Cheers, Terry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
