I have been building quite a lot of the Skytrex (Red Eagle) kits (LINK) and have found some minor problems with accuracy. The Nieuport 11 does look more like a later Nieuport variant - especially the engine cowl, the Fokker E.V/D.VIII having a fuselage that is too shallow, and the Aviatik D.I being the worst one with the lower wing too far back and the fin and rudder totally out of shape.
So, how are the Reviresco kits faring in comparison? They seem to lack some detail in some cases (lack of wing ribs for example). Are they more true to the original shape wise? What's your experience?
The Aviatik D.I fin and rudder. The lower one is the modified one. I later cut off about half a millimeter at the rear.
I had to move the wing a millimeter or two forward.
The finished result.
