gruffy Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 About time we had a brand new 1/72 Lysander ! Looks great ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeronut Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I was hopeful of seperate flaps and slats but it looks like we are only getting separate flaps - which of course can never be down if the inner slats are in. To me a Lizzie just looks wrong with a clean wing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr T Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Looks very promising and I hope it will be at Telford. The prop issue I suspect is not uncommon due to the tight tolerances with CAD/CAM these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobo Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Looking fantastic. Thank you Dora Wings for a new Lysander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWM Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Pardon my ignorance - some Lysanders has small windows below leading enge of fin, some do not have it. What is the rule? Which variant has it? Dora did not make them anyway... BTW - is it a three colour scheme??? Here, mk III witout windows Cheers J-W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Dapple Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Jerzy-Wojtek, the little windows ahead of the tail fin were so the pilot could check and adjust the angle of incidence of the tailplane which could be altered according to the load carried, but I don't think it was used much and the inspection windows were often simply painted over if I recall correctly, hence some pictures show Lysanders with the windows and others, usually later pictures, show them apparently without. Cheers, Stew 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEXANTOMCAT Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 That’s an inspection window for the tail plane incidence IIRC TT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This had horizontal demarcation line on fuselage, here it is diferently Thanks @Stew Dapple and @TEXANTOMCAT for explanation of the aim of small window presence .

wombat Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 That’s what I thought. But...what the hey is that scheme on the Lizzie? The darkest shade looks a bit rough and ready. There’s also a name on the engine cowling....curiouser and curiouser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Dapple Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 That colour variation... it's not just a difference in reflectivity or moisture between the metal and doped fabric surfaces, is it? Cheers, Stew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Stew Possibly, or even the effect of what’s obviously strong sunlight and shade, but between the ground crew and the tail fin there seem to be 3 progressively darker tones.

wombat Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 So last night I found my Haynes manual of the Lysander to see if the cutaway revealed any connection between structures and the mysterious tone...no, but not only is the image above in the book, but also another of (probably) the same aircraft taken from the other side, which also appears to have three tones. The darkest tone really does seem roughly applied though. Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king of men Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Don't want to be that guy, but is there a plastic part alternative for the cowl flaps? Yes, I know photoetch is more to scale but I'm no fan of the medium (well, of superglue to be honest). Not that it matters. I'm a fan of the Lysander and will definitely be picking one up once available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr T Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Hope he brings plenty for Telford. Was already on the buy list as looks a better prospect than any of the others available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best Patrice Need to ask in your stores. Upon return, we will send orders to distributors. Or 23 November, Houten, at Euro Scale Modelling. I'll be there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
