Shalako Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Hi Tomas, Beautiful work mate!!! Did you add all that wiring/hydraulic lines to the wheel wells or did you use an aftermarket set because they look perfect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done the wiring/hydraulic lines on the gear & wells myself. I am not sure if there are aftermarket ones available for Tamiya, at least there was nothing at the time. Here are some other photos of the landing gear & bays: Cheers, Tomas 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
