Revell 1/72 Mig 21

[-Ian-]

Hi everyone

 

I'll be making a start on a Revell Mig 21 this weekend, can anyone tell me roughly how much nose weight I will need? The instructions make no mention of weight, I'm always wary about using too much in case I put excess strain on the nose gear.

 

Thanks

I'd add a couple/three pellets between the instrument panel and the back of the seat. I believe it won't need much weight since the wheels are pretty far back.

However, those who've already built that kit may be more helpful.

I don't recall much nose weight needed, but just put a little weight just in case.

More ideas regarding the 1/72 Revell MiG-21 F13 kit assembly can be seen here:

Is there any noseweight needed at all? Van:t remember needing any in those Mig 21's I built...

 

Cheers / André

 

Ps.

Isn't the Revell Mig 21 F13 the One to build if one want to build an "Israeli Mig 21"... ?

Thanks for the comments, I'll just use 5-10 grams in that case

After this topic:

Revell Mig 21 F13

generally do not need to build... and buy it too is not necessary!😎

....accordingly, the question:

"How much nose weight in Revell Mig 21 F13, I will need?" also loses relevance!

😉😁

But what about those who bought it? 🤔To this question, I, as a person who bought Revell Mig 21 F13, have no answer ....🤗
