KayFranz Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Warning! Jpthedog and everyone else who builds Cierva or Rota. Here is a photo taken 20 years ago during the construction of a Spanish replica. The original Avro ROTA K4232 and the C-30 MZA under construction stand side by side. And what are the colors of the propeller blade on the pilot's side? Regards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andwil Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 I think he is pointing out that the rear face of the prop is painted black while the front face is nmf. ( At least they are on the reconstructions pictured). AW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpthedog Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 Oh well GB end date and here's where we got to. Stumped by the undercarriage arrangement for both kits. Each having 10 pieces of plastic/metal (not shown) that somehow fall together. I will crack them and probably scratch build a new undercarriage to replace the white metal but I think it will be a challenge to get them correctly aligned and level . Enjoyed the first part of the double build. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
