Greg Myers Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 The Drastic Plastic Instruction site for cars is great . I was wondering if there was anything similar for aircraft models? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Eh? Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm not sure if such a site exists. What is the kit you need help with? Maybe someone here has it, and can scan the instructions. Long shot, I know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanielG Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Greg, don't do it! It may be the worst kit ever. There is nothing interior that you can use. To make a decent model you are going to use about a dozen parts and scratch build the rest. Get rid of it and get yourself a Trumpeter version and save yourself a lot of grief (If you are determined I will see if I still have the instructions). Everything you see inside this beast was scratch built and with that huge canopy you have to do something with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Myers Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Too late, I already have two of them. Can't find the other right now as I'm right in the middle of a move. Luckily the later part, where I try to fit everything back in. Thanks Daniel, I have seen the difference between this one and the Trumpeter version. You are correct. Looks like your canopy stack didn't come from the kit either. Edited August 21, 2012 by Greg Myers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenb Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Daniel is right. That kit is horrible. If you like a challenge and strive for detail this kit will test your abilities. I build aircraft also. Not as much as cars. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigphoto Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Build it park it on an a South Pacific looking airstrip and cover the canopy area with a tarp as they did! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
