Blood for the Baron!

I am very excited as I have just aquired a Phantom X-19 fighter off ebay. Just one question - Does anyone have any suggestions how the cockpit can be made more secure? It seems rather loose just being held on by the rubber nose cone. Or am I doing something wrong?

Love this aircraft
There are two tabs on either side of the canopy that slot under the fuselage, and the rubber nose cone to hold it in place.

Thanks for the reply. I still find that the rubber nose cone is not good enough on its own to hold the canopy in place. Any other ideas?

Have you got a pic?
Both my canopies seem to slot in and hold fine.
Not damaged is it?

I find using Yojo.com's archive handy in putting together vehicles I had no idea how to put back together my dreadnok trike I bought on e-bay without it.

Yup, my custom works fine. There are some shots of the cockpit open and closed, maybe you're missing the slider mechanism?

I find the Yojoe blueprint archive very useful too.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I have realised I do have the slider mechanisam it is just not connected up. I will consult yojoe and I am sure I will fix it.

Thanks guys

Here you go. There are thumbnail links for the instructions.

Fixed it now. Thanks for all your help. What a great aircraft this is! I am very happy with it. I think some below radar recon missions are called for to celebrate.

an impressive win, it's one on my want list, did you get ghostrider with it?
