Grumman Gulfhawk - completedVedere: Prezentare de diapozitive Mozaic Listă 1February 20, 2019 2February 20, 2019 3February 20, 2019 4February 20, 2019On the right course again. 5February 23, 2019Fabric, stitching and ribs structure restored. 6February 23, 2019Temporary rod for holding during airbrushing. 7February 23, 2019No significant difference between the original AM and restoring/self created structure 8February 23, 20190,0 extra parts in the cockpit (will be closed) because the focus is the entire look of the Gulfhawk. 9February 24, 2019First (resin primer) and 2nd color optimated base coat in place. Orange coming soon. 10February 24, 2019I'm not a friend of resin... so I modified the kit parts myself and corrected the carburetor inlet. 11February 26, 2019 12February 26, 2019I cut too much of the cone so I had to add an additional sheet. 13February 26, 2019Slightly modified contour of the carburetor intake. 14February 26, 2019The windscreen is thin and correct but for good fit I had a lot of work. 15February 26, 2019Moveable part is too thick. Fortunately I saved the reworked kit part from the second F3F Project (for vacu forming via toaster). 16March 3, 2019 17March 3, 2019Tail wheel attachment holes should be closed. 18March 3, 2019AM R-1820 is very well designed but in my opinion the pushrods (0,9 mm) are a bit too thick. I reworked them by using 0,68 mm rod. 19March 3, 2019Thin part of the resin cone is not heigh enough. 0,6 mm thick plastik-wedge helps. 20March 4, 20191st step. 21March 4, 2019 22March 6, 2019 23March 10, 2019New oil cooler inlets in correct position (step 1) 24March 10, 201915 minutes later.
