CHP Hughes 500D
1October 30, 2022Instrument panel. The decal does not fit well. Too much transparent overhang, for starters. Plus it’s just not the right size or shape. And the print quality is…lacking.
2October 30, 2022Another quality cockpit decal.
3October 30, 2022Pilot won’t fit unless you separate his hand from his body.
4October 30, 2022Another view.
5October 30, 2022His legs are also too long. Seriously Academy? He’s designed to fit in this exact kit!
6October 30, 2022Pilot with (poorly) shortened legs. Copilot (pointing) fits much better.
7October 30, 2022Added 2 collective levers and coiled headphone wires for the headphones.
8October 30, 2022Another view of the pilot’s collective. The parts that form the overhead bulkhead also needed putty in order to fit together properly. Kit quality is not amazing so far…
9October 30, 2022Overhead view. Pilot’s hand should be on the cyclic (whoops!). The rest looks pretty good though, all things considered.
10October 30, 2022Added some wires behind the instrument panel. It wasn’t easy to shape them, but I’m pretty pleased with how they turned out.
