oppenheimer Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Hi guys,as you may know i have posted some pictures of the cockpit already, this is my new proyect, i hope it will turn ok, this time i will build in a different sequence, i will start with all the smal pieces like cockpit, engine, landing gear, doors , and extra aftermarket pieces then i will start putting all together, so in the beggining you only will see pictures of this parts then will come the build itself.I started with the EDUARD resin cockpit modified so it will be a 1A, here are some pictures too bad that most of the details will be hidden once the cockpit is close in the fuselage, that is why i took this picturesthis is the model engine, just added the wires, the exhaust is just dry fit at the moment, but the joint of the exhaus wont be visible thanks to the cowling flap doors the after market engine accesory section almost done, need to add some wires and hoses and the fuselage ready to be closed, with the Eduard resin cockpit module in place 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louiex2 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Yeah, right- you got ahold of a 1:1 Corsair, disassembled the cockpit, set it up in you garage and made it look like the Tamiya kit interior Seriously, it's outstanding and I look forward to following the progress.

Noah Greggs Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 WOW THATS AWESOME!!! Sure looks like you got a 1:1 and are reassembling it... (Does it fly?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oppenheimer Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 this will be the last update for 8 days, got to fly out of the country, i finished the propeller, looks worn but i think it is ok if you visualize this birds working on sand runways on the airplanes i fly the propos get worst in paved runways so i thinks this one is ok for my taste and here is a general view of the bent wing bird so far, little by little is starting to look like a Corsair 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
