    Question Paint kit for the FDG2's P-40/Kittyhawks?

    Dear folks,

    as stated in the "Wanaka" thread, I'd like to dress the fine FDG2 P-40/Kittyhawk with some appropriate New Zealand skins.





    And here's a nice overview of potential candidates:

    I particulary like the markings of ZK-RMH / NZ3009, but ZK-CAG A29-448 with its different markings on each side would be fine either.

    Does anyone know about blank templates or even a paint kit for the FDG2's Kittyhawks?


    I also took a look at the IRIS P-40 set, but the price of 23 EUR at simmarket seems a bit high to me for model released already in 2005!
    The total absence of a 2D panel won't indulge me for a purchase as well...

    Cheers,
    Markus.

    Wild Bill,
    Far as I know there was never a paint kit made for it.
    Fireman's prayer

    Give me the strength to save a life,Whatever be its age
    Help me to embrace a little child, Before it is too late
    Or save an older person from The horror of that fate
    Enable me to be alert and Hear the weakest shout
    And quickly and efficiently To put the fire out
    I want to fill my calling and To give the best in me
    To guard my every neighbor And protect their property
    And if according to your will I have to lose my life
    Please bless with your protecting hand My children and my wife.

    I bought it a year or so ago. The sounds are great, the model itself is great but for the life of me, I cant get it over 250 mph without the whole aircraft shaking violently. The machine gun effects are awesome but if I cant cruise at 300 knots at altitude, then I'm not interested. If it flew better, I'd use it all the time. But it shaking violently is just unrealistic at any altitude, at 250 mph, especially for an aircraft that could run upwards of 370 or so.

    I wish I could fix it.
