Re: AFV Club Flak 18 + Voyager PE

Nice, I loved that PE set when I did my 88, there's some parts I didn't even attempt but it's very well done.

Re: AFV Club Flak 18 + Voyager PE

you're putting pressure on me with your speed roman - i have to catch up! :S

great start! :popcorn
 
Re: AFV Club Flak 18 + Voyager PE

Thank you Laura. I'll try not to reduce my speed :)

Somebody knows how flak 18 shot from wheels? In what position there was a lever of the hand brake?
And I suppose that handles on the winch must be folded down?

Thank to all :drinks

When viewing this video in the full screen it seemed to me that the lever costs vertically (1:09 - 1:10).

Whether somebody knows fuse-setting machine was used when firing on the ground targets? :hmmm :idonno
 
Re: AFV Club Flak 18 + Voyager PE

Looking really sharp. Nice work on the pegs, cant see any glue at all between the PE and plastic. Really nice (y) (y) (y)

Thanks James.
Glue is visible a little, I tried to clean surpluses of glue with a newspaper.
