zeroOneman Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Another great kit from Airfix - all the newly tooled kits that I have built so far have been an absolute joy to build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirportsEd Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Nice work. What did you use for the rigging? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeroOneman Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 i used EZ-line (fine) for the rigging, which is 0.25 mm in diameter, the control wires were done using ultra fine black rigging thread from Black Mike , this stuff is 0.048mm in diameter & is almost invisible in the photos.If you haven't used ez-line (or the alternatives that Black Mike sells), it's basically very fine elastic - it can stretch to around 12 times its' original length before getting close to breaking, because of this it can be pulled taught with very little actual tension.

It sounds good; many thanks for the info. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
