BMH Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 The Trumpeter 1/32 Crusader kits have one fuselage missile Y pylon right (so I've read) and the other a mirror image (totally wrong), and the fix requires scratch building beyond my talent & time. The kits also don't include a full load of Sidewinders or Zunis in each box--you'd have to buy two kits to load each for fighter or CAS missions. So how 'bout adding a corrected Y pylon and/or a set of Zacto Zuni pods to the line? The corrected Y pylon would be welcome no matter how you're loading out your Crusader, and I'm sure Zacto Zunis would be better than Trump's kit items. Keep up the great work, Zactoman!

venom Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I agree , sounds like an easy job for a craftsman like you , make a big difference on the jet , which is one of trumpeters best efforts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMH Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Fisher make 1/32 Zunis. Not the rockets, the Y pylons that mount the rocket pods to the aircraft. Kit ones are goofed--one side is right, other is a job opportunity for Zactoman to help out us non-scratch builders. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
karl h Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 both pylons are wrong, the angles are off http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=170009 compare the kit parts with the drawing (scroll down) they are actually not that hard to correct. some strips of thin sheet to tilt them, some dissolved putty and sanding makes them look ok Quote Link to post Share on other sites
