Jessie_C 12,865 Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 It's too bad this one fought you so much, because it looks so pretty now that you're (almost) done with it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hutch6390 2,941 Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 A shame to leave it like that, after all that effort, Miko. How about bagging another copy of the same kit, using the U/C leg from that, and (later) building the new one in a wheels-up configuration, in a different scheme? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blue Noser 4,394 Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Ah shoot! It was looking so sweet!, hopefully the missing leg will drop out of a parallel worm hole and appear soon enough in a place you have scoured 6 times already! Or do what Hutch says above, then the original will appear as soon as you glue the replacement in! Bob 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bob I'm hopeful it will turn up, but my search was extensive, even sifting through the the dust receptacle in the vacuum cleaner, which has yielded results previously As for getting another HobbyBoss Jag, well, I have two Hasegawa T2's and a third Jag kit might be a little excessive! Although, if HobbyBoss do an RAF T2 rather than the French one I have, then maybe? I didn't research thoroughly in order to find the limitations and differences between the two national types before clicking the 'buy it now' button, the impulse purchase region of my brain is well developed for sure! Much to the chagrin of missus Miko! This is why the relatively inexpensive HobbyBoss kit became pricey once I bought the aftermarket fuel tanks! Oh! speaking of after market resin stuff, I notice the MrColor #3 'Red' seemed to rub off really easily, is this a 'thing' with resin, does it need a primer, it's why the tanks don't have the 'Empire Test Pilot School' decal applied?

Recurve 1,994 Posted July 4 Author Report Share Posted July 4 Found it! Hiding in plain sight among my clippy sprayee thingies! I was considering getting another HobbyBoss Jag to replace the missing u/c leg having thought of a buttoned up in flight what if? But, while setting up for my next built, there it is!
