Your work on this project looks great! Whose parts did you use for the hydraulic actuators?

Echo what I said previously Eric, one of the most accurate renditions of the front active suspensions I have seen! Great job.

Yes,i separate the upper part from the cockpit,it's much easier to paint and decal without the suspension arms installed.

Thanks all for your nice comments.
