I'm really enjoying following along on this one, it looks a great kit and you are doing it justice! Nick

Yep, i use mine for flight sim (DCS) and racing sims. 2 Transducers either side of my seat and it works surprisingly well, although i will add 2 more when i get chance. I also use VR, and those 2 combined makes it feel very immersive.

I have made my own, using some transducers and a mini amp. Got the idea from this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K55VNaS5rZI It works very well!

HI Stew, did you ever finish this? Looks a great build!

I would love one, but there's no way i could justify spending that much. I would be too afraid to build it in case i cocked it up, so it would just sit in my stash (alongside my Wingnut kits 🙄😂) and that would be a waste - After all, kits are made for being built aren't they? For anyone who does get one though, and builds it, you are my hero. What a kit!!

Looks good to me!

I’ll follow along if you don’t mind, been eying this kit up for a while now. Gotta love the Tempest, a bruiser of an aircraft 🙂

Wow that's a work of art!

Ammo MIG is great, they do a flat aluminium which brushes on very easily. I pretty much only use these paints now, they are really good.

Wow, great start - Your figure painting is top notch!

Nice work, i'm tempted to have a go at one of these, it would look lovely next to my A6M2. As @jenkosays, the undercarriage is a bit tricky, you're supposed to be able to operate it, but mine is just down - If i tried to move it now it would just break.

You will enjoy this build, i did the A6M2 a few years back and it was ace. As for Aotake, i did a lot of research when building mine and in the end was none the wiser!

Looking great!

Thanks Paul, will have a think and will be in touch. Nick

I've been using my trusty H&S Ultra now for a while after buying it from the very nice chap at Little Cars at Telford back in 2014. It was my first so its taught me a lot, and at the same time i've probably been a bit ham fisted with it. But it's been fun and i'm improving. I'm finding now that i'm starting to struggle with it, i think the nozzle is a bit worn and the trigger assembly feels a bit slack with not much feel. I've been looking at the H&S Infinity, what realistically would i notice over the Ultra? Its a fair amount of money but if the gains are there i don't mind shelling out. Or should i replace parts on my Ultra or indeed just buy another Ultra? i mainly paint 1/48 and 1/32 aircraft, with Tamiya and Ammo Mig paints. Thanks for any help/insight/advice! Nick
