Default My Tf Cessna Mods

Hi All!

I´m building this TF Cessna from along time... now I want to finish her!
I have a interior set modified for open the doors. To do this, I needed to move the elevator and rudder servos backward, behind rear window. This is what I made today...
Sorry about my english...

Thank you for the answers!
Yes, the doors and handles works, but now I´m thinking in how to make a scale hinge that, at same time, looks real and work properly... Any idea?

Cheers,

Andre.

Wow great job, I have been working on mine for a while. Put it aside for a break, wish I had thought of doing some of the things you did on yours. Also your interior kit looks like it fits a lot better than mind does. Again Great Job

Very nice! If SDCrashmaster finds this thread, he might be able to point you in the right direction for scale door hinges. I too made a removable tail hatch, and built in a scale luggage door to hide my switches, charge jacks, and fueler.

I made my door hinges by slicing up some nylon hinges and then using styrene, CA and epoxy to make them look the part.
I then molded the entire part and resincast the passenger door hinges. The passenger door is not operable on my model.
The upper pass door hinge is my RX switch, which slides fore and aft.
The reason the nylon hinge had to be sliced up is that the "rings" were too wide on the stock hinge.

Hi!

Yesterday I finished to cut the Cessna´s wing on foam... It have 5 parts, and the 2 tips will be joined to the main wing using a aluminum tube...
The wing tips have the required washout...
Here is some pictures...

Cheers,

Andre.
