JOCKNEY Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 This is the RPM kit of the Beriev BE-4 , which I completed during the recent Flying Boats and Floatplanes GB.

Viking Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I hope that engine was on strong mounts, pity the crew having to sit directly under it! Nice build of an interesting subject. Cheers John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Great looking Beriev 👍 ... these always made me think of what a single engined Grumman Goose would look like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kit gives no guidance as to how the engine and wing locate to the fuselage, i.e. No injector pins etc. The prop is actually too big for the model, so much so that it would actually hit the fuselage and canopy if it was turning !
