Comparing AEG G.IV's

Rate this Entry
[QUOTE=tonyc206;46923]Well as I promised last year! Here are the AEG G.IV kits from Skytrex, Reviresco and SRAM

First up is Skytrex

Nice clean molding with no holes or damage. Detail is a little on the heavy side as expected. I like the nice one piece fuselage with the tail already attached.

Next is SRAM

Reasonably good molding but the wings have little detail and are very thin & flimsy and there is a distinct lack of struts and undercart components. The tail also comes in multiple pieces. Fiddley but ideal if you want to pose the tail at an angle. The lower wing centre section is extremely thin and fragile.

Wings are clearly made in a 2 part mold giving the undewing detail on the upper wing.

....and finally Reviresco

I'm not a fan of this one at all. The wings come in 3 sections and the fuselage comes in multiple pieces. Molding is messy (old molds) with lots of flash and bent/damaged parts

Overall my personal preferemnce is for the Skytrex model and I will not be building the other 2. If anybody wants them, please PM me[/QUOTE]
