    I like A-7s but setting up their landing gears is a complex task and the result may be dissapointed. That model was Made for flying configuración.

      I agree, the gear down can be painful. I still have night mares from the very first one I did!!! 😂 But this one went together ok, just had to have a little routine going and some patience. Does look best in-flight, but they don't supply a stand for that,haha. Thanks for dropping past to watch the video!!

    That is a quite creative and sharp livery on that one. I always think that the pilots of these planes with the really cool and unique liveries must automatically walk 2-inches taller just for the paint scheme. I know I would have. It took me a minute to register the Greek flag on the right wing too...a neat touch. Unfortunately, I guess this model shows its age, with all of the fiddley bits and some fit and finish issues. I would think the market is ripe and ready for a Hobby Master version with 2024+ manufacturing technology. 🤠👍

      Yeah some of the liveries are amazingly well done!! I think the pilots that fly the unique aircraft do have a couple of extra inches than normal pilots, but don't think its in height 😉😂. I think if Hobby Master did and A-7 it would be a great move!! At least they could do the rear gear like the do the Hornets and Falcons, just a drop in preassembled module!!! Thanks for watching 😁

    Amazing looking aircraft and model. And I like the Witty Wings mold itself more than the Century Wings. But plastic parts, it's a big headache.
    By the way, missiles are painted black, it's an unrealistic WW fantasy

      @@slizevicius Yes the livery is nicely done. I agree the ordnance just being all black plastic is a little toy like and does cheapen the finish. The main landing gear is also a little fiddly on these, although it wasn't too bad on this model. Thanks for checking out the video 😀

    As The History Guy channel says " all the best stories feature pirates!" Your displays must be a blaze of colour now. Don't get sucked into that intake you say. There was a USN guy who was; there is a video of it - the aircraft was an Intruder. On that note, on to the next vid..........

      Yes its unfortunate these builds rarely have a stand included. Witty Wings, JC Wings and sometimes Herpa seem to share a lot of the same molds which seem to be 99% stand free,lol. And its always the models with the hardest gear down set ups,haha. Thanks for watching!!
