I have done this in all the build threads that I have started in the last 3 years. This includes posting photos of the packaging of the products that have found to be usefull. My coming GWS-40 Build thread will also include the latest information.

What I do not have is the information on the retailers who sell such items in cities and towns that are 3000+ kilometers from where I live.

Just got my email as well. Good to see the EB's will get a new 1060X3 prop. I'm also looking forward to getting my 3-bladers for the P-38 as well.

Historically speaking, shipping will be in the $35 region. When I purchased 2 F-15's the shipping was twice one - I don't recall a discount.

Pat,

Do not forget reminding Miss May that you ordered EB GWS-38 before.

Chen

GWS4May · Jun 25, 2007, 02:56 AM

May from GWS

Hi May,

I had sent an email to you regarding shippig, but forgot to mention that I am in Dubai, UAE (United Arab Emirates). Please could you let me know the rates to here as well.

UH-1H · Jun 25, 2007, 07:56 AM

I think mine would be about $20

Red 61 · Jun 25, 2007, 08:32 AM

I would be interested in posting one of my famous build threads, for the GWS P-40, right here on RCGroups. Please PM me if this is something GWS would be interested in.

Hello,

Doing some research for this model, i found this picture. Can any one tell me what the wires from the wing tips to the fin are for?

Tommy D · Jun 25, 2007, 09:05 AM

Thanks May, standing by!

I could be wrong, but I always thought that was the radio antenna. However, I was not aware the antenna went to BOTH wingtips.

Check out the pictures I took at the Chino Air Show last month...

Chen, yes I will not forget to mention that I was an EB for the P-38. I'm looking forward to getting the 3-blade props on her!

I will also look into ordering extra props for my other kits (Me-109, Spitfire, Corsair). Hopefully they can be placed inside my GWS-40 box as well.

Hello May, welcome to the RCGroups forums. I will respond to your email for my GWS-40 kit shortly.

ipjodan/Red, I have seen detailed drawings of the P-40 that showed aerial wires from the outer wing area, running towards the vertical stab. Those were intersected by a wire running from just behind the cockpit to a point on the vetical stab (see first pic attached). Red, in your pics from last month's airshow, my guess is that the old style wires were removed, and replaced with a more modern aerial (look just aft of the cockpit in your pics).

I'm going to do mine after Gregory "Pappy" Boyington's 1st Pursuit Squadron plane (second pic).

You can see the little bump behind the cockpit where the wire runs from there to the vertical stab. The wires from the wings intersect that wire ahead of the vertical stab. 104.6 KB · Views: 525 41.5 KB · Views: 373
