Drifterdon Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I'm currently working on the Minicraft 1/144 E-8 J-Stars and just plugged in the engines to the wings. Holy schnikes Batman! These things are all canted at a horrible upward angle. Looking for help in fixing the pylons to get the angle to an acceptable level. Don't want to go with aftermarket if I can help it. Edited September 16, 2019 by Drifterdon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dutch Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I'm afraid I have to agree with Brother Ray, Don! This is the MAJOR weakness of the Minicraft 707, followed closely by the nose / cockpit / windscreen shape. I'll keep you in prayer! K/r, Dutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
