Default RE: Skymaster MB-339


ORIGINAL: SCALEFANATIC

Hi Gabrielle,
what is the problem with the Cuccolo kit apart from having to glass cloth and finish the wings, tail etc? From photos, the fuselage seems to be detailed and looks scale. Eurokit supply the retracts.
The Skymaster kit saves so much work. I am surprised that they don't do wingtip tanks as an option for those who want an MB339A or CD. I will let you know if I want the kit and would be delighted to exchange any information on the 339. You are obviously in a better position in Italy to obtain documentation. I would like to get plans showing flush rivet lines,
Best regards,
Brian
Hi Brian,
the 339' Cuccolo is not a 100 scale model, is a semi-sport model. So the fuselage have not the panel line or rivet and the wing are in balsa. The Eurokit retract is good.
Also in Italy in not simple to find a good documentation about the 339, but when you need I can Try.

The skymaster kit saves much work, but it cost 3 time !! Anyway, I like very much the Skymaster, so I can sell the Cuccolo and buy it !! [X(]
