Hi guys

i understand from reading the Osprey book that the upper wing of our zero
had two circular panels the one nearest the wing root being the fuel filler
and the other further out near the gun bay this i read was in fact a transparent/perspex inspection window
is this included in our model if not are there any ideas around including this and are there any pics

2. i also see there are near the wing gun pets undercarriage indiator rods coloured red ??

again are there any pics/diagrams 3. how would be model these in 1/16th if not included in our kit
and for the wing without panels what did the mechanism under the wing look like has any one any thoughts ideas , pics, diagrams, anyone modelled these in 1/24th or 1/32 what would the dimensions , colours be

Hi Sophie,

If you look at post 100 in my Tamiya build you will see the position of the undercarriage indicators.

By the way I am sure we would all love to see some pics of your build progress.
