OK, I went out of my ways a bit yesterday. I drove for an hour to a neighbouring town, where the members of my local chapter of IPMS had advised me of a store with lots of good conten. And in the stack there, between the messy shelves PACKED with models, new and old, i find my beloved FROG!
So I am now a proud owner of the Seminar UH-1 C ("Huey Cobra??) and the Academy/MRC UH-1C FROG.
THe comparison is actually not too bad, the seminar model lacks a few places, and is definitively NOT a C, it has some of the pieces, like the wider chord tail fin and bigger horizontal stabilizers, but it does not contain the 540 Rotor System, it has the original one. This is OK however! I can now build both Royal Norwegian Air Forces models! They had 4 b's and 6 C's so I now have the opportunity.
I'd like to thank all you guys for helping explaining the differences and the pro's and con's of each model (And for allowing me to hijack the thread!).
I now need a good closeup picture of the top of the B's rotorhead, so that I can see the "chineese weights" so I can model those properly on my Seminar model!!
Thanks again!
