Exclamation Nose gear bay

As stated, none of Yoav's designs has a landing gear. I decided to use an old bay from an old FLY models meteor Mk3. However, it is bad, wrong and even enlarged was marginal. I used it anyway because I had no patience to design and render a new one ( I wish someone else could do it all ).


Anyhow

parts to be cut

Somehow it appears that the cutout is too wide for the needed landing gear. Will check later

add weight for balancing on the gear later on.

Ready

I will lightly paint it later
