Hi All This month its a great deal of panels for the cockpit to paint and fix in position. The left wing also has the flap made up and fitted, the air intake fitted, the upper skins added and the folding wing tip fixed to the wing. The last thing to be made up was the first of the ailerons. More soon.

Hi Steve Thanks for looking in and your comments. Your right about the cockpit starting to look busy now although all the parts are supplied in cast form and have to be painted so not looking too bad. Im just glad the seat will go in from below   as its getting a bit crowded in the upper parts.

Hi All Another instalment on the build. The first thing to do was to make up the second aileron, this one will be covered in nylon and painted silver to reflect the silver dope used on fabric coverings of the period. Then next thing was to add the high tensile leads and spark plug leads to the engine and make up the engine mount. A very simple but clever and nifty jig was provided to start the build of the rear fuselage I will be painting this after all the former's and stringer's have been added. Finally the radio tray was made up and fitted as was the aileron tab adjustment wheel in the cockpit then the outer cover for the spent shells ejector unit was added. More soon Regards Andy arpurchase attached the following image(s): Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Hi All Some more done on the Zero. The rear fuselage has been made up with all the stringers now in place and sprayed with Aotake and the fuel tank and oil tank sprayed with Aotake, the fuel tank has been fitted but not the oil tank as yet. The rear part of the engine has been painted and added to the engine mount and finally the deceleration chamber has been painted and added to the propelor assembly. More soon Regards Andy arpurchase attached the following image(s): Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
