Chaotic Mike Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Hello all, I am in the final stages of building the MDC 1/32 Typhoon,which has been fun, and as a resin kit a bit of a diversion for me. I have in my possession a number of W/T and generic stencils in the right scale, but not much idea where I should put them. Can anyone do a scan or photo of the Airfix 1/24 decalling guide, or some other handy source of information that can help me out? Thanks in advance, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray_W Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 You can download the Airfix instructions from Scalemates here: https://www.scalemates.com/products/img/3/6/3/417363-92-instructions.pdf And the Eduard ones for their Hasegawa rebox here: https://www.eduard.com/out/media/11117.pdf May help.

dov Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 W/T is wire transmission . Location of any pulley. Happy modelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stever219 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 3 minutes ago, dov said: W/T is wire transmission . Location of any pulley. Happy modelling I'd always understood it to be a Wireless Telegraphy (electrical) bonding point, nothing to do with control runs; there certainly aren't any pulleys inside the rudders of Hurricanes, Spitfires, Typhoons, Tempests, Blenheims or sundry other types that I know of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Oh, this was totaly new for me, what you said. My Informationen came from a pilot & mechanic from FL at Duxford. As I checked it now, it is for having a proper electrical connection not to interfare any radio equipment from WW1 onward. Happy modelling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitfire Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Hi for my MDC Typhoon build I used the Aviaeology stencils here is a search for images which may have the instructions. https://www.google.com/search?source=univ&tbm=isch&q=Aviaeology+1/32+typhoon+stencils&client=firefox-b-d&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjf6ZPz28byAhUMC8AKHQg-C6IQjJkEegQICxAC&biw=1920&bih=899 Cheers Dennis 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railfan87 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hi Mike, Did you get the information you need? I have the Aviaeology airframe markings set for a Typhoon 1B. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/aviaeology-aod72s03-typhoon-mk1--1166803 It has a detailed placement guide. Let me know if you'd like it.
