It does appear, according to the 'Official' DeAg Japanese build, that a bit of 'hacking' is required to get a good panel fit at the rear on the completed model: http://translate.google....ih%3D744%26prmd%3Dimvns
Like the colour issue, which the link also seems to allude to, Kyosho has a few problems with the kit that I doubt will be any different over here. The alterations needed to make the parts fit better seem to be quite simple, so I for one will probably incorporate the mods As I go along. They don't seem to be major, and wouldn't affect any of the kit build even if Kyosho have actually fixed the errors. Roy.

I see this as a positive that we know about this now!!  .. Alterations can be made without having to "dismantel" the Kit at a later date.. As you all know I have been making my own alterations as I go along and its always part of being a model maker... You can spend 100's of pounds on an Airfix or Tamiya kit only to find that "alterations" need to be made along the way... Something I have accepted for many years. I'm not saying that everyone should accept this but its part of the modeling world and what makes us a better modeller... it's an art and any kit that is attempted, whether it's £10 or £1000, alterations of some kind will need to be made at some point...

I can see links to a couple of PDFs to fix engine cowl fit, but the links won't open in google translate - so how do you actually get the fix instructions?

I downloaded the Japanese PDF's as the pictures are fairly self explanatory.
I'm going to try copying and pasting chunks of the text into Babelfish to see if I can translate it.
Slow and laborious, but we'll see......

Thanks for the heads-up Kryten... go to the left hand side when it comes up with "to large to translate" and go to "open original" ... to save... go "file" and "save as" Spence
