Quickboost Nieuport 17 parts?

Hello everyone.

I have a quick question. What problems with the 1/72nd Eduard Nieuport 17 are the Quickboost cowling and tail plane supposed to address?

I don't have a clear view of what exactly is wrong with the kit, and I'm just curious before I buy them.

I can't seem to find anything that explains the problem.

Many thanks.

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

It has the slots in the tailplane ready made for the elevator wires---nothing more (though I would find this (easy in 32nd or 48th) hard now with my eyes in 72nd. so the benefit might be worth the cost.......but anyone used to 72nd still should not find it too difficult

Cheers,
Dave.

The Quickboost cowling also has the cooling holes in place unlike the kit part. The location and proportion look good to my eye.
