aerotechi Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Has anybody got some suggestions/advice for a decent repair for the landing gear leg. Reglued it a few times but never lasts (weight of model seems to sag the break and then break the bond over time) model is the revell mig 25 foxbat 1:48.

Dads203 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Brass rod pin will work, drill out the leg and the gear bay. Insert brass rod, ca glue and your done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard E Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 One option might be to return to the drawing board and replace the kit's original undercarriage with a white metal replacement from Scale Aircraft Conversions: Scale Aircraft Conversions MiG 25 Undercarriage 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmovik Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Third option: Close the gear doors, open some holes on the underside and make it an in-flight model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Fourth option, hang it from the washing line with firecrackers up the exhausts. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
