How are you coming along on the updated wing mod for the new Skystriker? I'm very intrested in your process, because the Skystriker's landing gear problem was something I always wanted to fix, but I lacked the know how. Your Youtube video showed great promise and I would love to know how you fixed the landing gear wing problem and made the wings move independent of the landing gear.
ahh no doubt! - I have a photo group on webshots as well: demo_team_west- It has a random assortment of stuff... mostly 1/18 tinkerings in the F/A-18, and US Navy HH-60. Cool deal!
I hear ya, I got sidetracked on my F-14 Tomcats / Skystriker conversions also.
Since I cant figure out how to make the GE 110 Turkey Feather Exhaust Cowls I am stuck LOL.
I as hoping I could get some help from you.
In the meantime I have managed to compile 7 Skystrikers and 5 F-18 Super Hornets. So my carrier wing Transition Fleet is here, now just have to customize them.
The F-18's are True Heroes / Elite Operations Hornets. The oses are very Round, and I need to figure out how to make new nose pods that are pointy. Any suggestions?
I was thinking about a nose from a model rocket... that might work well
No worries man, i understand. Mainly I just want to seperate the wings and the wheels. I havent been able to find any clear pics of the inside, so I wasnt sure how the mechanism worked, which means i cant tell how it can be changed.
I only just heard about it from your article and the recent buzz within the past week or so. I am very curious about it but the big disappointment is the single seat set up. I still have 5 other O.G. (Orig. Gangsta) Skystrikers that I bought 3 years ago from E-bay- I am actually considering doing another one soon. I have burned all the construction photos of the both the Striker and the Flanker on CDs and was looking at them the other night. I have been caught up in the airsoft community and travelling so I havent done any customs in almost a year or so. When is the tentative release date for the new Skystriker? I might drop by Target or TRU for a look.
hi mate, how are u,
i am looking at seperating the wing mechanism from the landing gear on my Skystriker when it arrives. Assuming it works similarly to the old one, how did u do this? i saw the thread here: http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...version-3.html
but wondered if u had a step by step guide to pulling that off?
thanks for yout rime
