I have been chomping at the bit to get started on this one.The engine was my starting area for reason of personal taste like get my problem area out of the way and operational.The plane will be displayed in-flight as it stands at the moment subject to change.I will be adding Quintas to the office to spruce things up a bit and I am leaning towards the boxart but some mask for the main insignia.;)

 Installed a small micro motor into the crankcase/gearbox the motor measures .160"D X .510"L can handle up to 4.7v will go from 3.0V now to 4.5V with a potentiometer installed for calibration.I have several of these kits whether the Mustang or the Spitfire will be good for dio's also.;)

It's been a slow process been working a bit summer and work on the house and such.The copit is glued up now and I am working the pilot and the required harness to make it look a little more convincing.The pilot is a necessary component seeing she will be inflight.;)

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
