I tried polishing my Corsair canopy glass and even bought a second one hoping to 'get lucky' though not the case.
Even 91% IP Alcohol fogs over some OEM clear parts.
Does anyone know of a way to polish or 'clear up' the fog in OEM clear parts?
Inquisitively, LB

As you can see, to make it authentic, you'd have to remove the tail gunner blister, install broom sticks as tail guns relocate the upper turret and remove the side gun blisters. Not saying it can't be done especially by DaveGee, but a lot of work. The results would be cool, especially if she flew on the anniversary of the raid. We were fortunate to have Doolittle's co pilot at the 4th of July parade a few years ago, with a B 25 doing a low pass over main street. We also had warbirds visit us on numerous occasions.

In the words of one of our owners and I paraphrase..."The next 24 months is going to make a lot of customers happy."its all fun that generates intrest and sales... which turns into better product

borntoolate Aros The 1875mm is HK, right? And currently available.
Not that I need one, I have the old Freewing NIB, but cannot find much information except a couple old videos that don't tell me much.
Figure it will just need everything redone, but par for the course with me.
In the mean and the near future, I am looking forward to the New Flightline B-25 Mitchell and already thinking about some modifications.
A Model C/D most likely at this point, so I'll need the "Spare Parts" to be available soonMotion RC.

Yes sir HK. The only drawback (besides the flimsy stock props) are the panel lines. They dug too deep a trench for those. Otherwise, beauty!My YouTube RC videos:
