Foxtwo,

Will be following your build of this newest generation aircraft. I must confess that I'm no fan of pilot-less aircraft, anymore then I would be of driver-less race cars, but that's the way technology is going. Ok, I'm off my soapbox now.

Good start! I'm sure you'll enjoy this kit, I did!

The spoilers and bomb bay doors will need trimming to fit. Extending the wings also needed a fair bit more work, but looks like you're cleverly avoiding that. :coolio:

Dang, I see I painted the intake trunking incorrectly. I have a picture in my X-47B pile exactly supporting your work. What annoys me is that I looked at that specific picture quite a number of times to get other details right. :bandhead2:

pretty happy to see that such subject is interesting......it's my first "wings without a pilot" stuff......;-)

David, are you talking about the "demarcation line" between the white and grey ? all the pics show it "straight"....while the line on the kit have "corners"......;-)

kit is started since a few days, i'll post more pics soon....

Yes, that was my mistake!

There are a few 1/48 UAV's available. The SkunkModels RQ-4B is the only one larger. The smallest, by far, is the Attack Squadron RQ-7B. I've got those and a Bronco MQ-1 in the display case with an Attack Squadron MQ-8B in the stash. Attack Squadron has a 1/72 MQ-8C; I'm hoping they do that in 1/48 too. Hm, why don't I have an MQ-9?
