Dora Wings Vultee Vengeance open canopy options


Red Dog

Recommended Posts

Has anyone found or made a vac formed canopy replacement for the Dora Wings Vengeance?

Would like to pose with an open canopy.

The kit only allows for closed canopy and placing one canopy piece over another makes it sit way to high and besides the gunner/observer's part would slide under the middle/center piece.

Any help or suggestions greatly welcome.

Red Roo here in Oz do make a vac formed canopy replacement for the AZ Vengeance kit.

Has anyone tried fitting this to the Dora Kit?

If someone has the vac formed replacement for the AZ kit would you mind taking some measurements.

Span of the Dora Wings fuselage is 11mm. 

Maybe a combination of kit parts and Red Roo's AZ vac formed canopy may work?

The shape is simple so you could try making movable pieces from transparent plastic card - there are stiff A4 document covers made from good plastic, but material from package blisters may be be enough

Thanks Archelaos that's certainly an option.

Thanks Ed, also seeing what else is there on your site.
