I merely said "I would Look Into that" geeeeezo!The rolled seams on those eensy weensy exhausts? That is dedication.
I think it's just the scale of things in plastic. Engine, exhaust, mounting tubes the lot. Like the scale of all the parts in the cockpit. Unavoidable unless we build in 1/4 scale. Even then how do you fabricate the skin at one quarter thickness???? And not lose your mind building!Just out of curiosity; it was mentioned that the mounts on the real a/c are higher than the scale model you're working & from the photos, you really gave a good illustration as how the exhaust & mounts will conflict if the mounts were adjusted higher.
How does the real a/c "solve" this arrangement? Are the exhaust lower? Or higher?
