canberra kid Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I don't know if the pod was the same on the Vampire and the Venom, but if so this may help? If not, well it's a nice drawing regardless. John 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71chally Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Nice one John, is that for the Venom NF.3? The pod was the same between the Vampire and Venom two seaters, but the canopy was was of the multi framed type on the Vampire NF.10 (and early Venom NF.2s) with the shallower sill to fuselage fairing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAVY870 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Venoms and Vampires are two different animals, there's no commonalities between the two pod structures. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsprop Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Has anyone got drawings for the Vampire NF10, thinking about doing my own conversion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71chally Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Good luck with that and I really hope you manage top produce a conversion, I'm sure a decent one will sell well. There are various subtle differences between an NF.10 and T.11 pod, even when both types had the multi framed canopy there are differences in that assembly aswel. There are also NF(T).10s to consider, these were modified to have the main T.11 type canopy. I've done simple side elevations of an NF.10, but they are based on photos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
