The fit and detailing is excellent!
The kit offers two versions for the instrument panel:
A) a flat plastic part + two layers of preprinted etched parts
B) a 3D plastic part + decal.
I decided to use the B version because of the better "depth" of the plastic part.

Watching with utmost interest! (Did you drilled through and put something into the control column, Bernhard?)

You are welcome Robert alias "eagle eye"!🙂 It is a disc of thick aluminum foil punched with a flattened end of a 0,5 mm drill.

Here we go again - my usual seat in the front row please 😄
Optimg for that plastic part was the right decision, looks very realistic 👍

Injection shrink on flap looks terrible. Are You going to fix it anyhow? I would have no idea how to deal with this.

Adam: It was "half so bad" (mniej niż pół biedy🙂 )to fix this problem. See pic 9&10.

Unbelievable: not even a week since the beginning of working on this kit and today I have airbrushed the base color! 🙂. The plane is indeed really very small and simple.
Usually I do not choose white but a hue which is quite similar to the end color: a mixture of light grey and red.

Robert: nice to hear this. Indeed it's a state of the art kit 3D designed. The fit of all parts especially the both clear parts is perfect. I'm so amazed that I bought a second kit of two seater 🙂

I just inspected the result of yesterday's airbrush session and removed the masks from the glass parts. I was very surprised how clean and without lint or dust the red succeeded🙂. Exactly the brilliance (between semigloss and gloss) I wanted. 🙂

Beautiful red, The demarcation between red and clear is very sharp and clean indeed !

if it is just black text over a white background, it should be fairly easy to print it in decal paper (most difficult is to get the right font). you can do that in any laser printer.

Hi mates. Thank you for feedback and ideas. Of course: the simplest idea to contact Eduard support is the best idea🙂.
Just finished the decaling and I'm VERY SATISFIED with the result. By the way: by chance I discovered that it is possible to remove the carrier film after drying/setting the elements on the model!!!!!! Without damage to the symbols. See wing leading edge (pictures 21 and 22).

Jep. Bughunter once pointed to this in one of his threads. If I recall it right you find the details in Eduards monthly newsletter 5/22 on eduard.com.

Michael, May is right, but it was already in 5/2021. I strongly suggest to follow only the recommended way of usage. The mentioned setter feels like thinned white glue 😉
This new generation decals are standard since September 2019. It was important for Eduard not only in a technical way but also has a big influence on the product line. The can act much more flexible in comparison to external decal printing at e.g. Cartograf.

Gefällt mir sehr gut, ich liebe Zlin´s, bin so zu sagen mit dem Triebwerkssound aufgewachsen. Aber EDUARD macht es einen leicht, ein solch Modell zu bauen.
Schade, das der Hersteller noch immer keine Bemalung aus der DDR herausgebracht hat.
