This is my second
year as a modeler and this is my first attempt to scratch-building parts (the
trolley). I saw an example of this
aircraft variation in Robert Forsyth’s book ‘MISTEL’.
It is a wonderful book for mistel enthusiasts,
the book illustrates a top, side, and back view of the trolley.

I made
the trolley all out of styrene rods. Total
cost was $3.00 and the outcome was extremely accurate compared with the blue
print diagram. I use an after
market tire made for a Ju 88.
The biggest obstacle
was attaching the both V1 and FW components.
I also added a lot of lead in the front half of the V1 to prevent the
model from tail sitting. I was
extremely content with the results. I
hope to have these photos show up on ARC, it would be great as this is my first
submission.
