| Re: Not a bad looking hellcat
This bird does indeed suffer from the dreaded Viagra prop hub. I'd take a clipper to it, but owww... the sympathetic pain...  The model's still very good though, IMHO. | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Not a bad looking hellcat As noted on another thread, this represents Dragon's feeble attempt to pass off an F4F-4 molding as an FM-2. Aside from the ridiculous Jimmy Durante propeller hub, the tail fin is too short. I bought one of these and gave it a "nose job", but it's difficult to deal with the tail so I call it an FM4F-3, which is probably more accurate. | |||||||||||||
