HI Leo fantastic work on this model an I really like the camo finish must have really tested your patience as im sure I could not do it that well as I said earlyier in your build
I have the trumpy super hornet in 1/32 an its a twin seateater an when I get round to it I hope to do her in the diamond backs sqr in red.But a question if I may I see in your kit the
airbrake is cut out so it can be in open or close postion did it come in kit like this or did you cut it out ? as in my kit its hardly shown an I would like to have it in open postion so I will have to cut it out an that's some im not lookin forword too in case of a mess up. But you have done a superb build if mine comes out like yours I will be v- pleased

HI Chris,

The Academy one gives you the option to close or open the air brakes as well as the radar.

HI thanks for your reply about airbrake an I wonder why trumpy dint do this as its a v- exspensive model so it looks like i'll be cutting mine out. Sweating already :worried: lol
