Thank you for the reply John, I shall be purchasing these, as I still want to create more NEW Canberra sets, well a few big plans in my head, for future Aerocraft Model releases…..I need real aircraft information and not ‘model’ related information so glad you have produced two volumes that would seem to be packed with the ‘RIGHT STUFF’. cheers Ali

These look amazing, what more can you tell us John. Will these be well suited to modellers, diagrams and or drawings etc? I am sure there is mine full of information within. For me up in Scotland what would you suggest, order through the pre-order link you have posted up. cheers Ali

Hi Paul no they cannot be easily adjusted. However I intend to do a canopy set for the Echelon kit, so just wait a little longer. cheers Ali

Hi guys The undercarriage is now drawn, needs to be printed and checked, then brass parts sent to casters. All being well and some design change you will be able to install the undercarriage after main assembly and painting of model, added to that a much stronger set of undercarriage.

Hi Guys This is a response I posted on a similar topic on LSP earlier today. I have seen what resin2detail is proposing and obviously he is moving a lot quicker than I, well to be honest if I had pushed on it would have been completed by now. I wish him all the best with the project the way he is tackling it, and I never want to speak against another after market retailer or model producer, as each has their own ideas and need to generate sales. One of the main reasons that I stalled on this project was the huge task and cost it would be. With all the things that need changing and correcting you would be buying the base kit for say at least £100.00 in the U.K. and then from that you may salvage the rear fuselage and tail, and a few other pieces!! Which makes it a very expensive way to get a rear fuselage. The way that it stacks up in my book is that it would be more cost effective, and a better model would result from starting from scratch with an entirely new resin cast and 3D printed kit, along with brass u/c etc. I have no idea of cost and or full implementation but would there be any interest in such a plan?

Guys Here is my plan for the undercarriage parts for the kits. I decided to get the best results ‘hopefully’ price, details and strength I would redraw the main parts so that I can offer a set that will have brass parts and 3D printed parts that can be used with the kit parts, and the obviously further detailed and upgraded by the modellers that choose to do that. The first picture shows some of the parts from my first trial print. The final brass parts will be developed from the final 3D printed parts and cast by the brass casting company, the grey parts will be supplied as 3D printed parts. Final tweaks still and details need to be made and more parts will be added to the 3D resin parts to complete the sets. I hope to have these available within June. I anticipate the price will be in the region of £25.00 to £30.00 per set, with no fixed obligation on your part an email on your interest in any of the sets would assist me greatly for planning please email me at [email protected] you will have 4 choices Tamiya standard configuration Tamiya launch configuration Trumpeter standard configuration Trumpeter launch configuration

Great model Alistair, thank you for the shout out for my products.

I will let you know, postage will cost more than the part:) well almost. I also have new brass modified undercarriage coming as soon as I can get them made by the casters, hopefully mid to end January, this uses some kit parts but new adapted kit parts cast in brass will make for a strong assembly. A few small part modifications will be needed by the modeller, and the undercarriage can be added in at the end of assembly and painting.
