What Hellcat version do I need for the drones? It is the 3 or the 5?

Judging by pictures that can be found via the net, both F6F-3 and F6F-5 were used. You have to check on the images of the particular kite you want to replicate.

Thank you sir.
Have you seen the WW II British report (RAE?) that compares aerodynamic performance of the same Mark Spitfires from different factories? I don't think I have a copy anymore, but can probably dig up the title and date and surely some Spit enthusiast has a copy. Let me know if you are interested.

Hi Art,

Sorry for late reply but I've been on a holiday and have not checked in on the forum until now.

I don't think I've seen such an RAE report and I would definitely like to see it so if you would be willing to share it. I will send you a PM with my e-mail.

Best wishes

Anders
