Dave I think I've worked out why the wings are so straight ! The underside wings are very flexible and the upper wings are not this is causing the wings to straighten so what I'm going to do is fix the underside to the fuse and let that dry overnight then tomorrow fix the upper wings to the wing roots with superglue so it drys quicker , I did a dry fitting earlier and it made them look a bit better\ said:Looking good Alan.Looks like your on top of all the problems so far.
Sounds like a good idea.Hopefully it will work.\ said:Cheers folks I'm glad your enjoying it Dave I think I've worked out why the wings are so straight !

They all had a tropical filter, Vokes or Aboukir.\ said:Simple question did all spitfires in North Africa have the Vokes intake ?I have one in the kit and want to do the desert version but it doesn't fit properly so I was wondering if I can get away with the standard one
Cheers Steve ive got the Aboukir so I can put that one on as it fits better\ said:They all had a tropical filter, Vokes or Aboukir.Cheers

I believe the lack of dihedral is fairly well known with this kit. Someone somewhere will have detailed the fix, I suppose.\ said:Coming along nicely Alan.I can see Im going to have problems with the fit of that wing.
