Title: "Heavy Cutlass" in FD Scale
Post by: dy031101 on August 23, 2020, 03:08:33 PM

It all started with this AU model (http://beyondthesprues.com/Forum/index.php?topic=3295.msg115375#msg115375).

I'm now at the stage of determining the positioning of its crew, and the current depiction is indeed still problematic- I feel they sit too high.  I'm currently going for the equivalent of the APQ-72 or APG-59 for the radar, and I want to preserve the F7U-3's forward visibility for the pilot...... maybe I'll try the APG-50 or even APQ-120 instead......

Powered by two J79 turbojets as specified by the AU model.

To Be Continued
