Nexa Aichi Val - no love?

[CF-105]

So... where's the thread? Cuz I haven't been able to find it...

It's not the only recent Nexa addition like that, btw.

Anyway - I have the VQ version of the Val. Curious if there are any changes/improvements? When I assembled mine, I opened the canopy (and replaced the alien being for a human pilot), added a gunner, dummy radial, tail hook and bomb drop (and scale bomb). Haven't had it out for a while, but not a bad flyer. Had to replace the stock wire gear, it was bending (not merely flexing - bending!) on good landings.

Nice plane. I’ve always liked the Japanese models.

What prop is that?

Thanks! It's a 13x8 Master Airscrew. I gave the front a coat of aluminum and added some vinyl trim strips for the stripes.

Some of the new Nexa models don't have official threads yet, although the product descriptions direct the read to them (sans hyperlinks).
