jenshb Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 yes...Yes...YEs...YES! Not sure I'm sold on the resin wings, but the nose, canopy and intakes will go a long way to improve the shapes of the kit in that area and make it look as elegant and sleek as the original.

LT Motta Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I've bought one. Nice stuff but the nose sensor is for CR version only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Very interesting. A slight wing fit problem on the left, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDH Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) Where can it be bought from? Have a look here http://www.renaissance-models.com/bis/ I've tried to place an order and been unsuccessful, don't know what's gone wrong. The website doesn't seem to want to process the item in 'My Basket" So now I've emailed them to try and sort out how I can buy one.

pigsty Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Yikes! €32 plus postage, and another €15 for the exhaust (which really needs the help), and they've not improved the undercarriage legs? And yet it's strangely compelling ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet it's strangely compelling ... I know what you mean....I was compellled to to try to place an order. There is also the AML exhaust which is a bit cheaper but not seen one in the flesh yet so am unable to comment on how good it is. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll compare the two by using the photos available and see. Perhaps the Renaissance one is the better on first look. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisov Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 If you start with the Kitty Hawk single seat, version when it arrives - I assume the single seat will follow the F1B given the split fuselage - will improvements still be needed or has Kitty Hawk captured most of not all? The prices mentioned above seem start out as more than a new Kitty Hawk one. I am not an expert but do like the F1. Cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Chris I've not seen the Kittyhawk kit yet, still awaiting it to be available from a UK supplier. I don't know exactly how good the kit is and of course we still await the announcement of the single seat versions availability. I think therefore your questions possibly cannot be answered at the moment.I have a stock of the Italeri kit to build and for me is a question of developing my building skills using the Italeri kit as a base. Yes I will be buying the Kittyhawk kit, no doubt more than one but I'll also be buying resin update items for the Italeri kit so as to build and improve the Italeri kit and hopefully move my skills up a little bit. The Kittyhawk kit is likely to be around £35 so prices are not too dissimilar. P Edited May 18, 2013 by PDH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
