New OV10A Bronco from ICM , 1/48 scale, news from the 2021 program

Comparing the sprue shot images posted by Homebee, it appears ICM has fixed the vortex generator error from the first release: the OV-10D horizontal tail has them (correctly) present on both the upper and lower surfaces.

Excellent spot Rich, that saves me some work, when I get my new kit I will clone some underside planes for my other kits, so much easier than what I had planed.

Absolutely. Generally if he says a kit is good it is. @Ali62 I have an early Bronco release too. Cough...cough.... I'll bet I'm not alone.

I will let you know, postage will cost more than the part:) well almost.

I also have new brass modified undercarriage coming as soon as I can get them made by the casters, hopefully mid to end January, this uses some kit parts but new adapted kit parts cast in brass will make for a strong assembly. A few small part modifications will be needed by the modeller, and the undercarriage can be added in at the end of assembly and painting.

Just order direct!

Help a good cause!

I get the whole 'support Ukraine' thing, but I'm afraid I gave up on ordering anything from outside the EU quite a while ago. It's just more trouble than it's worth, between VAT charges, customs clearance fees and the ever-present possibility that the authorities will return the package to the sender because of some deficiency in the accompanying paperwork.

 

The final straw for me was when I had to pay VAT and customs clearance fees on a replacement part sent to me by a non-EU retailer!

That's been my 'go to place' for Reskit accessories for quite a while. However, they unfortunately seem to stock them in only very small quantities that sell out quickly, with long intervals between re-stocks.

 

You may try Moje Hobby / Super Hobby, they have a lot of Reskit sets and re-stocks are quite frequent: https://www.super-hobby.com/manufacturers/RES-KIT.html
