stenkabg Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Hello mates! This is my take at correcting the shape of the nose of the MiG-21 bis kit by Eduard. It enables you also to extend the nose cone as seen on many museum aircraft. The shape of the AoA fairing is corrected also. It will be available soon and I hope it will help building more MiG-21 bis models. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Laurent Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I'll take two. Where do I order ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 PLEASE give us details on how to buy!! I'm in for about four of them! I've been begging several aftermarket manufacturers to do this since the kit came out!!!! Bravo! J Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stenkabg Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Now it should be OK. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janman Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 That looks great, especially with the cone extended! I've always liked it that way. I know it's probably been dealt before, but I can't recall what was wrong with Eduard's bis nose? A link to a conversation would be just fine. TIA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TIA. The pre-bis MiG-21 nose is to the Su-9 nose what the bis nose is to the Su-11 nose. Tubular. Caricatural drawing to explain...

'Generic' MiG-21 Finnish MiG-21Bis The front edge of the Bis version looks as though it is slightly contracted (for want of a better term). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jennings Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Eduard totally alienated me with the whole bunny thing. Way to insult your customer base and make yourselves look like pompous arrogant asses in the process. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
toadwbg Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Eduard totally alienated me with the whole bunny thing. Way to insult your customer base and make yourselves look like pompous arrogant asses in the process. I don't disagree but its now water under the bridge for me. Which reminds me, time to do another Eduard mig-21 as they aee fun kits. Edited May 14, 2014 by toadwbg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I don't disagree but its now water under the bridge for me. Might have been for me too, until the royal clusterf#£k they've pulled with the Bf109G. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
