Default RE: Royal P-38 Kit

Fiberglass Specialties does not list cowls for the Skymaster. I cannot recall that they ever did. I have not opened my kit box for ages, but I am pretty sure that the kit calls for building the cowls out of lots of balsa parts. They have parts for the Hostetler Skymaster, but it is *much* larger than the Marutaka kit. Hmm, they have cowls for the Aviomodelli Skymaster. Still larger though, with an 87" wingspan. I would have to see them in hand - the Pica or the Top Flite 182 cowls may be closer to correct. Have you tried sending them an email?

I cannot say when or even if I will get around to building my Skymaster. Seems that when I do it would be a good idea to make a mold for cowls, eh?
