finally stained the fuse sides 'light teak' and decided i like the colour.
Found the fuse is not straight so have it weighted down on it's side and a weight at the tail to bend the tail back to straight. Almost there but it's slow.
Been pottering with the 'dashboard' it's made and stained. Was pottering with how to make some instruments, was going to use some supplied by Mick Reeves for his 1/4 scale WWI British Pup & Camel kits. But then could hear the comments down the field. "Oh Germans had British instruments ha ha ha"
Like I said Stand off Scale - further away you stand the more scale it looks
However, find a company in Czech Repulic does instrument sets and individual instruments. Called
Aerocockpit. . I picked some German 1/4 scale WW1 at random. I only need a pressure guage & altimeter on dash. Rest is switches n' such. Apparently theres a compass in the wing.
I'll post some pics of them when they arrive. could be very good or otherwise
