Yes, I only took rough measurements, it already tells me that should be around 10% difference to the Kinetic's V1.0, so I didn't check further. Wondering about the truth, I tried to find more photos of the Su-27/35, they pointed me more and more toward Kinetic actually. Now that the new data from GWH confirmed that Kinetic is indeed more correct(for a Su-27/Su-35 that is, maybe the design team used data/drawings of the Su-27 to design the V1.0 kit?). I guess finally I know the truth now. Personally I would just live with it, as the canopy of SU-35 kit looks quite OK from the side, and if you build the kit with canopy closed, then it's only about 5% too wide, so only half as noticeable. But I can understand if that would be difficult for you. Yes, it's going to be difficult to fix, as always with canopies. Their new Su-27 could provide a solution, but the windshield of the Su-35 is too wide too(it has to match the canopy after all), and you can not use the one of Su-27. But think positively, their at least measured the real thing and corrected it on their Su-27 kits for us, so we will have the perfect Su-27 at least(Until we do more comparisons... X-P just kidding, I do not expect any sufficient issue). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OK OK, that sounds much better, but still I thought you guys were able to measured the real things. I don't know how to take exact measurement from photos and there is not that many photos of the Su-33 I can find, so I can not tell. I will see the test build someday.

HomeBe Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) M. Belov, you can update the thread/discussion title ! Don't speak about Aviation Art anymore as the name of the new manufacturer is: Minibase (for Minibase Hobby Corporation?). The company logo design is reported still to be finalized. The kit release is now expected before Christmas 2020. Hope is what makes us live. Source: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilitaryModelingSRG/permalink/2699264793622727/ V.P.

stalal Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Does anyone know of suggested retail price? It looks really good. Hopefully it fits well too. At times new companies make a mess of instructions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
