Lancaster model pictures.

Sorted out some more pictures of my Lancaster model,11 feet span,four MDS motors each with its very own servo,two receivers one set for the flight engineer to operate the flaps and outboard motors,full cockpit detail including a tiny map of Germany,navigators table etc nose dome was the part that inspired me to build her,this came from a vending machine toy holder,I looked at that moulding for weeks then bought an Airfix kit of the Lanc and drew up the plans,that was five years ago ! I only work on her outside due to space restraints.
My father flew Lancasters and this model is dedicated to his life in the R.A.F,she will get finished one day,the local museum got to hear of this project and want her as the local AWA factory made them.I could just make another as I have made a spare set of wings.
Cowlings are made of brown paper as described in the Tutorials section.
