It's a small step forward but I finally started production of PAV-1! I'd like things to move much quicker but life can get in the way and occasionally errors can too. I was able to get the plans printed out to a close enough scale, 1:23.5, so that I was able to cut some foam. When I finally opened up my box of depron I discovered that I screwed up my order and didn't get sheets the size I wanted so they are a bit small. This may not be too bad as it'll be good practice for building the big model. I didn't have time to do much but I was able to cut out the V stabs:
In the center is the 50mm fan that I'm going to use to power it. The stabs look oversized but they're correctly to scale, it's just there'd laid flat. Heres another showing the jet next my F-35' just slightly bigger in scale:
The F-23's stabs, despite being smaller in scale are almost bigger than the F-35's wings!
Hopefully more progress pics next week, stay tuned!
