B-25 Mitchell 60”

A little gusty, but still a good day to fly. I wound up making the bomb bay removable with a few magnets and velcro to help with battery changes. Noahangel's Mitchell handles the wind well.

Wow! So cool to see something you designed get built by someone else and then flown successfully! Thanks for sharing!

Finally getting some paint, decals and guns on the Plane!

CrahNBurn, how did you make the gun turret? Mine needs one

 

[CrshNBrn]

Great work, Noahangel! I used the top turret (+125%) from the 13th Squadron's Betty bomber plans. Probably not totally scale, but looks close enough.

It is coming along nicely, I am a little confused about the trailing edge of the inner wing. should it be closed and glued along the whole length or just at the longer tab section of the bottom skin?

Looking real nice! Either is fine, it I found that if I try to glue the entire edge, pressing it together may result in a crinkle in the top wing skin, so I left mine unglued. An option is to fill the gap with a strip of foam board. Most Master series planes have just left this unglued and I followed that pattern of design.

What an awesome build!
