(WIP) F7F-2D „Tigercat” 1:72 Fly

[Kriss]

The F7F-2D ‘Tigercat’ has just arrived at the workshop, a new product from Fly in 1:72 scale. Fly has immediately released four different versions of the ‘Tigercat’ and more are in the pipeline. Along with the model, there are also accessories from Fly, including three different versions of wheels (arta009, arta010 and arta011) and an engine (arta008), all 3D printed. The contents of the box are shown in the photo below, and a plus for the manufacturer is the included canopy and wheels. From the accessories, I will use the motor (arta008) and wheels (arta011). I had the opportunity to see a test model and the fit of the parts was excellent, so let's see if I can build it just as well.

Cool Kris was watching a video last night of an air show with a TigerCat in it and that plane sounds wickly bad.

I have already made the first cuts, as there is one fuselage for multiple versions. In my version, the stabiliser is replaced and a cut-out is made in the fuselage for the drone operator.
