(...) Hi Christian You are absolutely right. I think a little modification is needed. Thanks for your observation. I'll probably take more pictures after modififying the wing. Chris (20 years ago, 18-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military)

(...) Excellent idea. As you write the best part is the rear gunner. I am looking forward to seing more pictures. However I think that the planform is too straight. The wings needs to be swept back and maybe more tapering. Christian (20 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military)

Okay, after several failed attempts to increase the speed of the tracks, here's video of the tank in operation. It clocks in at 5MB so be sure you can handle the file: (URL) Video> Enjoy! Soren (20 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)

After watching "Raiders" again for the umpteenth time, I made a quick sketch of the flying wing and then proceeded to build it (with Indy getting beaten up in the background).

As mentioned a few months ago, Bryce posted both an F-4 and F-105 harkening back to the Nam era fighter jets.

(...) Wow Chris, this is really great stuff! The Blohm und Voss is awesome, I've always wanted to do some MOCs of BV's assymetrical planes.

Hi everyone I would like to introduce the Messerschmitt Me Libelle. This is another prototype from the luftwaffe and I think it makes for a fun little MOC.

PITSCO Lego DACTA sells the wider tracks at $9.00 US for 36 links, and the smaller tracks at $9.00 for 105 links. That's just off the top of my head. Kind of expensive, but mint condition... Your call. Soren (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.build.military)
