  cockpit with addition of some cables and installation of MFH belts sorry for not being able to enlarge the images, transferred in insufficient format? |

Rapid progress Thierry! I have the impression that the cables (in particular those from the dashboard) are slightly out of scale... Good continuation!

   to avoid the transparency of the red under the white decals, I used this compass for the first time to hide the circles of the numbers. I don't think of varnishing the numbers to keep a matte side have à nice day |

Thank you for the comments.
big problem with this Ebbro model.
When I tested the wheel alignment, the right rear wheel was 3mm higher. After various manipulations;tests (engine / gearbox / chassis), I realized that the problem came from the front axle.
I had to resolve to start over on a new model and there too there is a lack of alignment of the front axle on the body of the chassis.
So a lot of work for a young padawan.
After research on the net, other modelers had cold sweats with this model.
I'm going to take a break while recharging my batteries in Messenia ;-)

Sorry, Thierry. Ebbro kits, are very frustrating, on many occasions and need a lot of tests before assembly. Hope it can be fixed. Have a nice day and enjoy your visit to Messenia. |
