    (If you take a picture with the phone upside down, it doesn’t actually rotate the photo to be the right way up when it saves it, but just includes a “flag” that says, “this picture must be turned 180 degrees”. Then every time the photo is displayed, the software turns it that way. The reason for this is loss of quality that would occur if the original is rotated, due to the way JPEG compression works.)
    I never gave it a second thought to be honest. I will when I take snaps for my next update though. Thanks for the tips.

      There is a nice solution for rotating pictures , described very well at the following weblink @ www.ivertech.com/Articles/Image-Rotation-Issue-With-Windows-10.aspx

        i presume this only works if you up load your photos to windows first but I have been uploading straight from my iPhone to the forum direct. There isn’t any options to rotate that I could see?

            You can rotate the images directly on the phone, as well as crop them, correct perspective, and much more, as explained on
            Apple’s help pages. You don’t even need to switch to Photos to do this: after taking a picture, tap on the little preview it shows in the sidebar, so you get to see the whole photo (you can flick through all the pictures you recently took here, BTW) and tap the Edit button at the top of the screen.

            (I take all the photos I post on this forum using an iPad, and do these kinds of corrections on that as well to make them more presentable.)

            Something I forgot to mention in my previous message is that upside-down photos often result if you hold the phone with the screen facing up, because then it can’t work out which way “up” is for taking photos. What you need to do is tilt the phone first so that the screen is vertical and towards you, which will rotate the controls to put them the right way up, and then hold it flat — but don’t tilt it so far that you see the on-screen controls rotate to face another direction. If they do, hold it vertical again.

              I just found this thread.

              That's very nice indeed and a great subject.

              I'm not a huge fan of those Eduard panels but I have to admit they look really good in this one.

              Cheers

                An interesting aircraft with a nice looking build.

                  Thanks boatman, progress is slow as the day job doesn’t leave me much time but i enjoy the process of the build and the learning curve so I’m never really in a hurry . I look forward to getting the two sides of the fuselage as these always feels like one of the main milestone during the build. This one is slightly different as the fuselage is in four parts, two sides and a top and bottom piece.

                    Perhaps I should start taking the pictures with my G9 camera. It’s gathering dust anyway..

                      Yes, I think the Eduard can be a marmite thing but I have found the main cockpit controls to look good on most of the aircraft I have built so far. Some of the very small details just don’t seem worth the effort to fit as you need a microscope to see them and they just dont seem worth the stress fitting. I attend to cherry pick the bits I like that add reasonable improvement to the standard model detail (at least in my humble opinion).

                          iPhone’s got a good camera, and it’s easy to use. You just have to make sure it’s the right way up

                            It's certainly worked on this one :thumb2:

                              Tiny steps, glued the two sides together and the bottom panel. The top lid has some little clear lights which is a nice touch even if they are going to be hard to see once the top is glued on.

                              ps-and photos right way today...I’m learning.

                                I’ve managed to get a few spots of glue when glueing roof part down. Because the fuselage is serrated I was wondering what the best way to clean of any excess glue was. Sanding would not really do as is flatten the corrugated detail.
