Default RE: Skymaster big MB 339 ?? anyone ?


ORIGINAL: wojtek

I am about to start on a Skymaster MB-339 ( expecting to have it delivered this week ) , and would like some info from those that have done these ..


- how are you sequencing he landing gear doors ? im thinking of a up-2 valve .. and when the gear is down, just letting the nose gear doors close up against the strut ..
- does the plane come with wing fences ? or at least templates for them ? if not, does anyone have the templates for the wing fences ? most of the SM MBs I have seen have these installed.
- I will be powering the plane with a p120 ( I had the engine laying around and figured id stuff it in a MB ) anyone out there flying one of these on a 27 lbs engine ? what do you think of the performance ?
- Does anyone sell wing tip tanks for these that are scaled in 1/5 ??
- What should I be aware of or watch for during the build ? any issues ? I am also adding the speed brake option, and cockpit kit ..does the plane tend to come out nose or tail heavy ?



Thanks very much !

Wojtek, what are you doing ? What happened to that Rafale you been raving about for months now? I cant see you starting another plane when you got so many to finish. You planning on going back to your old ways and stocking up for Friday, Saturday and Sundays ?
