F-16 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I am almost ready to attach the landing gear doors on my Academy 1/48 P-38 kit. I thought I read (somewhere) that the gear doors have shape problems and don't really fit too good(?). Any advice on fitting these parts? Perhaps trimming the locating tabs off? Thanks.

P-38 guy Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 It’s really just the way the real things work that until Tamiya came out no one has made a good way to attach them. On the real thing they swing out and over the edge of the well. Best I ever did was to remove the two center ones and attach them. Not perfect but made for a better looking fit.
