      Very nice work! I need to ask... does the radome rotate?

          You need to put your video on YouTube, then link it here. Very few forums will have dedicated storage space for videos.

                  I just spent $25 on my decals, plus painted the strip myself ( A very difficult shade of grey).

                        I know I’m a little late to the party but here is my custom AL-37 in the prime air livery. It’s not quite finished but it’s a good start and I’m really happy with the final product, let me know what you think!

                                  Here is my EgyptAir AL37. There are a few more decals for the gear doors, and I haven't quite decided what to do with the wings yet. Here are a few photos and the cradle I made. I also picked up a full-size van and made some 2X4 brackets. The van is more complete now, pretty messy when I took the photo. The feet of my cradles fit across the 2x4s, it works much better than my little Mazda.

                                  Here is a video of the maiden:

                                    Speaking of cradles ..................... here's mine. It also doubles as the plane stand at the field when putting it together. Cost: zero, made from the shipping box, so the shape is perfect. Well, maybe 2 bits worth of Gorilla glue.

                                        xviper Neat idea! I hadn't thought of that before. We go through all the work to design and mold conformal packaging, so it's nice to see them have a second life as a cradle.
