Yahshu Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) I have started to scratch build a replacement dash for the K100 Aerodyne kits but I'm in need of photos, especially need to know how the front of the dash looks where the dash meets the windscreen. Thanks in advance. Edited July 15, 2019 by Yahshu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 How many do you need? Here are some I have saved for the same purpose, the pictures are from Paul Cox's 1979 K100 Aerodyne restoration from a couple of years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much. You are welcome...I found them on a KW K100 facebook group when I did research on the K100 and especially the Aerodyne some time ago...I don't have a facebook account but the group is public so I could see them anyway. As I said, I had plans to do a correct Aerodyne dash myself and these pictures were for that purpose, but you got ahead of me there. I don't understand why someone on the aftermarket haven't done this dash before as none of the K100 Aerodyne kits made by AMT or Revell have the correct dash, all K100 Aerodynes had it from the beginning in 1976, later all K100 got this dash. Do you have any plans to send it off to Auslowe or anyone else to have it casted? I'm sure many including me want to have a correct dash for their Aerodyne kits.

As you can see from my pics, I had a friend do up the gauge clusters on cad, I just need to get the instrument panel done & now that I know there's nothing major on the front of the dash I can get it finished. Jan from CTM was asked if he could do up a set but he stated he wasn't prepared to do one as there would be a resin dash needed. Hey I'm doing a dash, hmmmmmm. I'll keep you posted.

I'm doing the Bear rig as well... Well, getting started on it anyway. I've been talking with CharlieBravo (Chris) and seeing what he's doing with his to get ideas of the road ahead on mine!!

Just got a whole bunch of "O's" from scale productions to do the instrument bezels. Then it's a case of cutting up CTM's panels to get the need switches & such for the rest of the panels.

Yahshu Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) Started on the instrument panels, really wish Jan would come to the party on this, still awaiting word. There's still some refining to do with the dash & the instrument holes need to be enlarged a bit more.
