The rear brake ventilation in the MC kit is cast in one white metal part with the upright. Because I used the FW 14 uprights it was necessary to make new ventilations. So got another part on the to do list.
I vacuformed the MC brake ventilation/upright from 0,25 mm styrene sheet. The ventilation then was dissected from the upright, painted and cf decaled.

The resine front ventilations were hollowed by a teeth drill and adapted to the FW14 parts.

The oiltank of the 412 T2 was located behind the gearbox in an extension of the extractor profile. Oiltank and extension are missed in the kit. These parts are easy to construct. The oiltank was made from styrene sheet, the extractor profile from brass sheet.

OK Cedrik,
here are some increasements from the wings. I'm sorry that there was so few Progress but there are many mistakes and imperfections in the kit, that Need correction.
The front wings are cast in one Piece. I didn't like that, so I seperated them with a jewelers saw.

The rear wing needs some more preparation.
The uprights in the kit are from 0;5 mm brass sheet and too thin. They do not enclose the lower rear wings completely, theyy are open on the top. So I made 2 new uprights from 1,2 mm alu sheet and fixed them to the wings with 2 K glue.
