Crashed Horsa build guide
SHIPPING & DISCOUNT CODES CALCULATED DURING CHECKOUT
Turn our 28mm N088 Airspeed Horsa Glider into a crashed aircraft that can be displayed at different stages of a landing gone wrong.
In this free, 10-page illustrated PDF guide, Sarissa designer Gary Faulkner explains how he modified the kit to create detachable wings, drooping flaps and rudder, and a damaged undercarriage. The guide includes original workshop photographs showing the alterations and the finished model, followed by the complete photographic crash sequence.
Inside the guide:
- Planning the conversion before assembly
- Modifying the front guide wheel and control surfaces
- Cutting, strengthening and rejoining the wings using the kit's spar and scrap MDF
- Painting and staging the landing, damage and unloading scene
Format: free digital PDF download, 10 pages. Guide reference: QSG0018-D. Written, built and photographed by Gary Faulkner (March Attack).
This is a conversion guide only; the Horsa Glider kit is not included. You will need the N088 Airspeed Horsa Glider (28mm). The Horsa decal sheet is also available as a free download.
For an introduction to the project, see A Rough Landing: Gary's Crashed Horsa Glider, featuring photographs and the story behind the conversion.
