Splendid workmanship Grahame,it really does now look the part,thank you for these detaild descriptions of your build,this is normally the thing that we just have to guess at how the modeller has gone about things when looking at his model,the application of litho after being reworked looks most realistic.
Thanks also for the low down on these heading lock gyros,we had a raw beginner come out on the field once with one fitted to a trainer,he installed it in a fixed state and the model was last seen heading due south never to be seen again ! at the time he never told anyone about it,that was until the model did not turn and then all was revealed.
Is the one that you are using the one intended for helicopters ?
