Hello Folks:

I am rebuilding a Hawker Tempest and in need of the following parts: Sea Fury ailerons, Rudder, and throttle quadrant. Do any members have any available?

Thanks,

Joe

Well, this is the place to ask if it is 1:1.

If it is an actual full-sized Tempest the control surfaces are different on the Sea Fury I'm afraid.

Perhaps altering the wing to take the Sea Fury stuff?

But if doing that work, why not make Tempest ailerons instead?

Check out Spitfire Spares. They always have Tempest and Typhoon Parts.

There is no commonality of parts there, we may be able to help you if you are looking to build the proper Tempest parts. Please feel to get hold of me through the Typhoon Legacy Website www.typhoonlegacy.com

Maybe but we don't know if it's a model or the real thing.

Stop being afraid, yes, they are interchangable

Tempest and Sea Fury ailerons are interchangible.
