David Duckett | Dave Diels Engineering, Inc Kit #23, Grumman F7F-3 Tigercat | Build | 27-Sep-09 09:50 | | Views : 870 | Later models will have custom scale main gear from the Finn Factory. I glued a small piece of plastic to the main strut to be the base to rest the brace on. The brace is made from 1/16" balsa. The gear doors are made from 3/32" balsa. There's still a couple of more things which go on the main gear. |
