1/12 Mercury Freedom 7 WIP

Batteries are almost complete.  I added the Vent Line Connectors and Electrical Connectors.

These are the Landing System Components

Finally got back in the shop. Batteries are complete

This is amazing.

Thanks Greg.

I installed the Attitude Gyros today.

This picture is the Gyros and Bracket prior to Installation

And Installed.  Still have to route the wires, I'll do that after all the systems are installed.

The Rate Gyros detailed and ready to install

Awesome work being done on this build.  Very impressive.  

Thanks Bakster

I'm baffled by many of the detail parts you appear to be scratching.

3D printing perhaps???

Thanks Greg.  No 3D printer.  All hand cut styrene and some putty.  Some day I plan on getting a 3D printer.  Sure would come in handy.

Holy cow, that is some impressive cutting and carving.

Thanks again

Latecomer to the party here (there is usually so little activity on this particular forum that a lot of times I don't visit it. Fantastic model you're building there!

Rob...I hate to be always chiming in but...that looks awesome!  I can't help but cheer you on! The level of detail that you are putting into this build is astounding.  I am certain that this ship is going to fly when you are done. 

Great job.

Steve

Thanks Steve. 

I did a trial fit tonight before I made anymore progress.  So far, so good.

Corrected the Abort Handle. It was set up to move rearward. It is now set up to move outboard to start the abort process

Rob, it looks great.  Let me know when you launch.  I live across the big lake from you.  I will send a ship out for reentry.
