TSR2 in depron was created by Ex-Member
as i had run out of glue for the vulcan build, i sat and cut the first bits for this little beauty. :P :P

front of the fuselage up to the jet intakes.

Looking in now Tony, the real one is a big bugger also, sort of dribble on my regular Cosford visits the size of the thing amazes me.
Tell me is this the 10, 15 or 20th model since you had the wings, when am I going to see the Hurri [badass] [badass]
Now that I am older it seemed nice I have more patience.
Turns out "I don't give a s**t "

probably.
just cant justify the cost of 2 edf's and esc's to power it.

will have to see how funds go, will make it suitable for both i think on the plan.

need to order some more depron now, so i will put it on hold a bit until after the vulcan is finished.
