Title: Merlin HC4
Post by: chriswil42 on February 17, 2026, 04:13:06 PM
Started this at the last playday.
This will be a conversion from the boxed HC3 with a bunch of minor modifications and Navy titles.

Progress. Fuselage just about complete; just the aerials and other bits an bobs to go on.
At least most of the parts for the HC4 conversion are in the kit: hinge for folding tail, the bigger window for the door (the hole had to be enlarged). The nose was modified to remove the FLIR. There are some different aerials and things.
