fasteagle12 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) I looked but haven't seen any of these probes. A lot of kits (1/72 Has. Legacy Hornets, 1/72 Esci/Italeri B-52) do not include these probes in their kits. Seems like there would be a market for them but if they're out there, I can't find them. Anyone seen these anywhere?? The attached photo is just an example I found online..... Edited March 28, 2022 by fasteagle12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCOUT712 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) The only cast metal pitot tube set I am aware of is Miniworld Gulfstream antenna set Unfortunately it is quite expensive and only contains four of those pitot static tubes you look for. Somewhere some day I also found a regular store to buy that set but it was equally expensive. I was looking for those when building my A-7 and ended up using two injection needles with different diameters. The inner one I bent to the right angle and put the one with the larger diameter over the end pointing towards the fuselage. Then I used pliers and squeezed it flat. The with a little bit of putty it looked ok. Michael Edited April 3, 2022 by SCOUT712 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fasteagle12 Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 Yep...guess I'll have to attempt to make them myself. Seems like it would be a good thing for the aftermarket folks to make. I know I'd buy a few sets.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
