Hockeyboy76 Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 Finished now. All the little aerials have been added. Pics in Gallery here’s a teaser Its a tail sitter despite the nose being rammed full of weights, hence the tack under the nose wheel. Top aerial has a bit of paintbrush added on purpose to make it look more like the real thing. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Nice result! It seems the Toucan, like the Canberra, is almost impossible to weight down enough to avoid a tail-sitter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Turned out great!! I also like the additional pics in the gallery! Building a resin model myself currently, I am not sure if you can do a lot to combat tailsitters.... trying to make holes in the rear parts joints, but just how effective this is remains to be seen...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
