YakkityYak Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) Finally! I cut my losses and pulled one of the four model craft F-82 1/48 scale kits from my stash. I figured since they aren't the best, and I got such a deal, I would satisfy my cravings. Here's a rough, rough mockup.

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 There was an actual P-40 prototype like this. Keep it up 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it up 👍 I've seen that photo, and where I've gotten some inspiration for this from. From what I've heard, that prototype P40 may have been just a little tinker project, or just a serious joke by the wrench turners at the field, but who knows! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YakkityYak Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 Another Update! Whipped out my trusty dremel and got to cutting, scrounged around and found a trashed p61 I cut apart and began to use tidbits from. Current design looks good, I'm just a bit worried about prop clearance, you think this would be okay? The propeller is a bit wonky in the second picture, and it would be a bit more perpindicular to the nose. Excuse the mess, im also working on my restoration of an older RC plane.
