My friends!



I start a thread for made a concentration of my efforts to build a airplane models of extensive catalogue from Scissors and Planes. The execption is a floatplanes and airboats I not show here but I have a specific thread for.



I improve all designs with some details, or reinforcements to help a made a build.



Model 1 is a item 800 of catalogue: Vultee V1A Bomber



The V-1 is a most advanced commercial light aircraft in early 1930's, join modern caractheristics like high speed, variable pitch propeller, metal stressed skin, complete radionavigation systems, but is replaced in USA in Commercial Airlines with advent of Boeing 247 and DC-2.



Because this Republicans in Spain buy from many sources several Vultee V-1 and convert in tactical bomber, because the high speed of aircraft. Totally inappropriate for bombing in 1937 used for light transport or recon.

- Add a internal formers for scale plans to obtain correct cross section shape;



- Open gunner position;



- Made a suplementar wing internal reinforcement;



- Eliminate flat engine, repositioning and create a cowling firewall, made a air intake and add a volumetric engine gear box;



- Add a wings fillet;



- Add a missing undercarriage doors;



- Scratchbuiding with colored vivaldi paper scarf rigging and lewis machine gun;



- Scratchbuilding exaust pipes to replace 2D simulation with stiffed papper;
