Stuka details

I don't have an 18th scale Stuka model, but I would like to get one. Can anyone give me some details about the model? What are its stong points, as well as any errors it might have? Thank you.

Although it dates from the prehistoric days of the 1st edition P-51s and 109e's, it is quite pleasing to the eye!!!- I don't see any glaring errors, but then again, I'm not a member of a stuka round table commission.

ACTUALLY, there is something, the slats-dive brakes at the rear of each wing are moulded solid to the wing- no space betwix the two sections. They did manage to get it right on the 1/32nd versions, though.

Mikeg got it with the wing flaps. See the 32x Stuka for the more correct look. It could also use a pitot tube and a couple other antennas, as well as the seat backing behind the pilot's chair. Those are minor concerns, however. It is still a great overall and well worth the purchase

Yeah, the Stuka is definately one of the more solid models in the line. It was well ahead of it's time when 21st released it. Other than the fact that a G model would look cooler, it is highly recommended.
