Thank you for sharing! This brought back memories when I used to build these same planes as a kid in the 60's. I used wax paper over the instructions instead of pins. I wish I kept some of those kits. Thanks again!
This kit is a classic. Easy, instructional and fun. I’m (slowly) working on a full-scale flying replica now, when life doesn’t get in the way. As a joke, before the engine (VW Torquemaster) is installed I think it would be fun to make a giant fake plywood prop and hook it up to a bunch of bungee cords, so that when we haul it out of the hangar and turn the prop, it looks like we’re winding up the rubber band in the airplane model.
Damn. Time sure flies . . . whether or not the model does. Made one of these almost exactly fifty years ago. Except that I finished the papering and all. I went for more of a Werner Voss look.
i also want to make this model as a non-flying static display. So I am going for details like a seat and control column, more detailed machine guns. etc. i need to either purchase or make a propeller. any ideas? thanks.
@@gord-tj6qs hi. i think you can refer to hasegawa plastic model 1/8. i dont know this is still on sale. very expensive. maybe you can find its manual for reference.
Nice job. I built this model back in 2010 and another just arrived today which I will start soon. Did you cover with tissue at all or just leave the frame only for display? Thank you for sharing!
hello? I made a display version, but actually you can make a flight version with rubber band or small cox engine. Sadly cox engine is no more produced. Thank you.
