Hi all
Got my sample of Rodens RAF Be2c yesterday at IPMS-Sweden’s open annuals, yes I did bring home the big Sea5a kit to. These both kit are real gems, especially that Be2 kit. This one screaming out “build me” all over the kit. Haven’t hade the chance too compare too the windsock datafiles yet, but this one will go up to toplist of my workbench. Easter is coming around the corner, so this year I’ll have to make two wickerseats….Hopefully part or Eduard will give us some tiny etched bits for these one’s to.

Cheers
Lars Q

Hi Lars,
Can you post some pics or better still write a review of the Be2c.
I have been waiting for this kit since I found out Roden were going to release it.

Hi all
Here are some pics of the Be2c. Roden gives you five trees. You will recognise them if you already have the Be12 kit.

Here is the main tree with fuselage and wings, you find some minor flash around the edges, but not that much to get ballistic about. The detail is typical Roden if you know what I mean.


This one includes the fiddly bits, little flash. real nice in detail.



It’s two of this sprue in the kit. I did just take one pics of it.
Roden gives you six options on the decalsheet

Cheers
Lars

Thanks Lars.
I do like the look of that. Not too complicated either judging by the pics. Detail looks pretty good.
I'm definitely have to get me one of these now.
