harv 9,370 Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 The pit side pieces will need some TLC with some hot water or hair dryer. They both have a twist to them. Wish me luck....harv 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

harv 9,370 Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 Rob, the box kit fits very well. Have had no probs so far. The conversion kit, well not so much.......harv 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harv 9,370 Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 The conversion comes with 2 vac canopies. Plain, no detail. I don't like them. But, I have a cunning plan to use the 2 pieces that come in the kit. I think I will do them so they open to the side like a 109. Wish me luck.....harv 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BlrwestSiR 11,444 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 If you have them open, I think it'll work. I agree on the vac canopies lacking detail of any kind. Which is a real shame considering the detail of the base kit. Carl 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harv 9,370 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Yes Carl, they will be open. I really think this will work. Two cuts, one about a quarter inch from the front of back piece and one where the "frosted" part starts.....harv 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Martinnfb 12,859 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I don't like to be overly negative, yet I have to say that , the more I see, the more I am questioning ZM approach on this conversion. It feels like old Matchbox . Too much effort and profanities will be invested that's for sure. Keep it up Harvey, the canopy idea is smart way of problem-solving .

harv 9,370 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 I agree Martin. Its a good kit, but the conversion could of been better in my opinion. Especially the canopies. Thanks for supporting me buddy.....harv 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wish me luck....harv Harv Have you thought of boxing in the cockpit? It would add strength and sound proofing from the engines!!! On the conversion note. I wish ZM would of done it in a injection molding Two seat boxing like DML / Dragon did. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harv 9,370 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Actually Danny I am considering it still. Sides and a floor make sense. But I need to see how mu h clearance I'll have with nose part....harv 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
