I'm back after a 3d printer breakdown and a lot of putty work on the hull to align the upper part and the lower part.
I will be able to move on to painting the hull

Thanks Rob,
I must say that I take great pleasure in making this submarine. For the moment, I am only at the model part. It is not always obvious.
I realize that with large pieces, there are distortions in the print. They have to be recovered with mastic.

lower part of the hull with primer paint

Small modification compared to the assembly diagram: the front of the hull (part 8) has been fixed to the lower part of the hull and not the upper part in order to avoid working with magnet connections for the bow planes controls .

Hi Frank,

Your Typhoon is very impressive. I have been following your build and watching the progression you have made. I am impressed with your bow plane linkage, and if I am looking at them correctly, they will not only operate as a fully functional bow plane, but recess back into the hull when not in use?

Keep up the great work! And keep posting up your photos.

Hi what size are the cortnozzels? And where got this props2.

Gantu,


I offer those propellers. I believe they're 40mm diameter.

Hi Gantu,

I'm sorry but I don't speak English. I use google translator and it doesn't know "cortnozzels" or "props2". So I don't understand the question.

small printing retraction problem. I will print a little triangular piece and glue it.and after put a little putty
:

Hold up! I think you have an alignment issue. Here is what those two parts should look like:

Double check your parts!

I haven't started to rectify the alignment of the holes yet.

Are you sure? The limber holes do not align.id rather say that hole section is warped
