Don Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 That tail looks great! Very happy with MC's prompt replies and willingness to listen to those that know and make the necessary corrections. Breath of fresh air. This may have been asked and answered already, but has there been mention of markings for the 'H' yet? Just curious. Regards, Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pminer Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Dittos on the corrections!! I'll definitely buy. Thank you MC!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrea Bolla Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Image is a bit too small but we can see that the area between purple lines is perfect, the upper fairing blend line is shorter on the real plane (green line) and both the fairing and the gun mount are shorter too (orange and red lines); the fixed part of gun mount seems a little off shape too.

B.Sin Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 The upper section, above the gun turret, looks higher on the actual plane then the CAD drawing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's just the color, vertical alignment is almost perfect in dimension; the blending shape between upper and lower section is difficult to evaluate from these images.

modelcollect Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 although modelcollect making military tank model kit for 6 years, but only make aircraft for 1 years, and only create two kits in passed 1 year, B-2 and B-52, i am sorry we made some mistakes, errors, i think we can learn more by each project, and we will solve those one by one, and aovid those error in future project, thanks every one:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caudleryan Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I'm very excited for this kit! If I have enough funds, I might get a couple of them. Looking forward to the release of the B-1B as well. Though in the wrong scale for me!😁 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Several manufacturers and decal companies here on ARC have adopted a similar approach and are very successful because of it. Well done! You mentioned earlier that once the corrections are finalized they could be available in as little as 30 days, could you elaborate on the 2 options for ordering the replacement parts? There will be a B-52G correction parts kit link on modelcollect.com correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to ask how you doing anything to correct the wings, Spoilers on the upper wing surface, any type of mechanism so that the flaps can be shown displayed.

The flap tracks and attach fittings along with jack screws are missing in the kit so the only way to attach the flaps extended is to scratch build these items. @modelcollect see images below.

Look at the lines of the upper fuselage on the real thing above. There is a distinct kink right at the mid point under the vertical stab. The CAD upper fuselage looks to have a straight, uniform line from front of vertical stab to end of fuselage. Seems like a miss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I was speaking of the tail gun area specifically, which is pretty darn close, considering how is was originally issued Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mstor Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It could be the wider part of the vertical stab extending down around the curve of the upper fuselage. I think it is difficult to tell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
