Revell Type IX arrived in Canada!

[Stefan]

Had an early Christmas gift to myself. The new Revell Type IX arrived today in the mail.

Took a quick look. Very nice details and each hull side is in two pieces now because of size. Was wondering about the US flags included :-) until I realized it is a late U-505.... daaah

Will post some pictures of details and kit content tomorrow.

Hi Stefan

Can you tell me where you ordered the Type IX from and what the price was?

Thanks

pretty tight angle onto the props, is that going to be noisy?

And I expect to loose at least 20% of the available torque to the gears and universal. Screw it, it'll work.

Its a bloody awful alignment David. the torque loss is one thing, the increase in fuel consumption (battery life) via additional amps that arrangement flicks up will be interesting.

I take it that given you have now moved on to this that my order is done and ready for shipping?????
