chrisrope Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Would I be burned at the stake if I put the resin F6 cockpit I have into the F1 I’ve just acquired via the TK Maxx sale. Ive seen a dedicated resin F1 cockpit but hoping to save the pennies and use the set I have, think it’s the True Details one Ta Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Personally i would use it, especially if youre planning on keeping the canopy lowered. Either way i say go for it. However You might get some of the Rivet counter types grasping their chests. 😱 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don McIntyre Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 As long as you're happy with the substitution I say go for it. There's not a lot of people out there who would know the difference. You wouldn't get dinged at a (properly run) contest either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Vader Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 F6s had dark admiralty grey cockpits and the f1s had black. Paint it black and no one will know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stever219 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Apart from the colour one of the most visible differences between the F. 1 and F. 6 cockpits is that the former has the old "basic six" instrument panel (ASI, artificial horizon, altimeter, turn and slip, directional gyro and VSI) and the latter has the later OR.946 panel with strip ASI across the top, artificial horizon to the left and navigation display to the right. If you want to use your resin bits anywhere near practising rivet-counters we won't tell if you don't.😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
