noeyedears Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 This kept me busy for a while. its the Airfix 1/48 Hawk T1A. it has CMK pit, which fitted really easy, and wheel wells which didnt , the front well was unusable. Xtradecal decals were a pleasure to use, and a Tirydium models lighting kit. For those not aware Tirydium models is run by a member called Warren (Madmonk). the LED light kit is reasonably easy to fit too. the red top and bottom lights flash as they should, the others are constant on. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmonk Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Great build, far better than the one I did to demo the lights! The cockpit is really nice.

noeyedears Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Thanks again for the kind comments. Warren - the batteries will be put inside a fligtpath houchin mk5 power unit. I have a couple of builds to finish before i can build it up though. Il make a custom coincell holder so i can use two 3V batteries in series to get a bit more ooomf out of the smaller batteries i will have to use.

Madmonk Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Nice one noeyedears, You should be okay with 2 3v cells as the chip has a max voltage of 5.5v. Cheers, Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
