  • Check out this wifi enabled 1/48 scale Tamiya KI-84 Hayate (Frank) 1/48 scale model.
    This is my 2nd model after my 25 year break from scale model building. I decided I wanted to add a little extra to this model so it has a motor, speakers and lights! All of that is controlled via a webpage over my local network!
    Sorry about some of the bad voice over, used a different microphone :(

    I have brass tube & rod that fit exactly precisely to do stuff like this but haven't yet. My brother did a Lightning. If you switch the wires on one side you get counter rotation. He actually got it to taxi. The brass is meant for true rotation & friction protection. Good job. My dream kit is a 1/48 scale Pete. Many decal sheets suck. A sad thing amid the sea of technical accuracy.

    It's a very old kit so it's probably better to use for this reason. Nice result. When it comes to chipping Japanese paint was notorious for peeling unevenly with some aircraft looking like a flying wreck when it had only been in service for a week and perfectly fine.

Also, any recommendations around paint types and brands. I have checked out a few channels but havent found one that really addresses this in a comprehensive way for a newbie or returning newbie.

      Most likely when I drilled the prop out for the output shaft I didn't drill it true, so the prop is mounted slightly off. Also the cone isn't glued on, so if I bump it it makes the wobble more noticeable.
