Memebers who built the Zvezda 1/48 BF109F


Recommended Posts

Hey all!

been tackling Zvezda's 109F-4 with zero issues till this came about. do you guys have to sand Pt.B33 so Pt.A74 could sit correctly?

Pt.B33 fits without sanding but seems it seems a pit wide and Pt.A74 won't sit correctly without being stretched. Just trying figure out if it was a construction error on my part or if Pt.B33 does indeed need sanding.

oh and also, I'm doing it with closed cowling as well so not sure if that info is need.

thanks!

look at the instructions where it has steps 1 though 7 and look at the left side of the page where it says "5-A" part B33. this part is glued to the front of the fuselage and holds the engine in place. when part B33 is fitted to the fuselage, does part A-74 "step 14-B" slip into place or is the fuselage too wide when part B33 is in place?

thanks Jennings!

if this is to do with the firewall, it can be fitted in the wrong position, causing problems

this build by Scott Van Aken mentions the same problem, and may answer your question.
