Default RE: 1/5 scale TF P-51B

Well after a few months of being time-poor I just spent the morning playing catch up.

All the push-rod guides have been relocated to account for the raised elevator.

The razorback is now attached with 30min epoxy and fuselage wall along the cockpit has also been raised.

I have installed an Aerotech dash/turtle deck. I had to place this slightly aft of the scale position due to the need to fit the retract air canister and also give enough room for the Inzpan instrument panel. It still looks good, so I’m not going to cry over a few inches difference from the real thing.

Next project is the mount the engine and cowl so I can send the whole airframe to get glassed. Hopefully won’t take me 2 months to start on it. LOL
