The slats were spring loaded and should be out on the ground and were for landing and take off for a little extra lift and like you said so it doesn't stall. They didn't play any part in any other manoeuvres. All the same as the 109s later like the 262 were manual. They had issues on approach where the lower spreads on a turn the wing at the highest point would pop out generating anuf lift the lost control of it through itself out.
Hi Gary. That 1mm hole issue in Step 1 can be circumvented by putting a 0.5mm hole in each position first as a guide, then going for the 1mm.
2nd hole from the other side ?
Gary must be a golfer! Hole in one!
Nice build as always, Gary. This a/c should have had more attention. In '410 form, it was a more than capable design and very advanced for its time. It was also one of the very few twin engine a/c whilst on intruder missions over UK airspace that could outpace a Mosquito and, as a consequence, be extremely difficult to intercept.
Hard to believe that the Cosford example had both of its DB601s running as late as 1987 when it was at RAF St Athen. Brilliant.😊
It's great to hear this positive criticism. Manufacturers do need to pay attention to instructions - 'attention to detail please'.
Wonderfull ...hurra for à 1.72 ..plane....very enthusiastic ...I do only 1 72 planes and im very fond of your job...merry Christmas from France
Joyeux Noel à vous aussi!
Hello Gary from Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks to you, Gary, I know to watch out for those minor pitfalls when I build this kit. ❤
Hello mister gary. Great job done handeling those propellerdecals.great you stayed calm,and did not loose patience with sticky greetings. Christian
The Me 210/310/410 evolution is a fascinating story. And the one behind you at Cosford with its weapon bay doors open is fascinating to study. PS. I would've liked to have seen how you did the seatbelts. Otherwise a build that makes me want to buy one and have a go.
I think they were included in my "Ten Top Tips" video a couple of years back. I might do something on sprucing up cockpits that are a bit sparse, dry brushing and so on.
Fantastic build as always Gary,well done sir.👍👍
A lovely build Gary it will be good to see a night fighter version later down the line . Regards Gav.
Great build Gary, I will have to add that kit to my wish list.
Hi Gary, In your first few moments, I love that you have written in the paint colours in the instructions so that you don't have to keep turning to the "key" as you build. (I admit I did that with the screw sizes when I built a shed this year but I have obviously been too slow to do it with model building too) thanks for the tip.
It occurs to me that, in general, when you want to try drilling those holes with the broken out sides (stage 1 ?) it is sometimes possible to pilot with a smaller drill and then open up from the other side. However this one looks a bit busy on the other side too.
In your weathering, do you think the paint might get chipped around those fuel fillers and the general walk areas?
I couldn't help compare those spiral decals to the view over your shoulder. What was a sort of standard must have had a lot of variation in width. Either way, we used to paint them by hand without much difficulty though I doubt my hand will be so steady now.
When I get one of these (I might fancy a torpedo carrier), I shall have to remember to paint the fuselage before I attach the barbettes to my "toy" (I like to vary the pose from time to time to revitalise them) as otherwise they will leave a bare area.
This is a good and enjoyable build, very good.
Putting the spar in take 27... Who hasn't done that especially when it isn't easily clamped. Airfix seem to be giving quite a few options in recent kits for things like elevators in a kit that is reasonably priced. Very useful build video.
Thanks for sharing Gary. Nice work.
Watching it now looks great so far Gary xx
Wing slats often droop on the ground because there is no wind pressure to keep them up. The wing slats also helped with keeping the landing speed lower
I think on the Bf-109 they were spring loaded so they were out at lower airspeeds but pushed back when the plane flew faster.
@@garys_stuff One thing I came across recently, The wing slats used on the Me-109 were initially designed by Handley-Page. Ironic
@@michaeldenesyk3195 "Take a letter Miss Prune, to Herr Messerschmitt. Sir, we require the return of our slats at your earliest convenience. Yours, etc., Frederick Handley-Page" That should shorten the war.
Good job! Thanks for sharing.
I like your tip on installing the canopy in three sections. I'll be using that idea
To be fair, I think the destructions says to read them all before you start work 😂
Shame about the odd decal issue and paint guide problems....however, you produced a really good looking model there Gary! The mottling is lovely, and she just looks like an ME410..!!
Those CT masks look to have done an excellent job, which is nice to know, as I now have a set ready for when I get myself one of these kits.... 😉
Great stuff 😃 👍
The masks were great and left absolutely no residue despite being on for almost a week! Got a set for the Gannet too...
As for the gannet glass that has a line across the canopy you can use liquid polish to remove the lines or sanding polish stick of different grades to get the clear canopy with water to polish the seam off the plastic glass
Hi Gary.. agreed about the holes, perhaps they should have marked them on the opposite side so the modeller could drill through?
Ref the instrument panel in the centre low down. From the pilot's seat it looks like it was only just off his eyeline when looking through the glass panel on the floor, so perhaps they replicate the normal instruments so if the pilot is on a bombing run he doesn't have to look away from the target below him?
That Wellington must be really interesting. Those people haven't move !!
It's a fascinating thing, to be sure. Captivating, one might say.
cool build on the channel thanks lee
Gary that looked very difficult, far beyond that which I can do at present however you created a lovely looking kit……..congratulations matey. I hardly know a thing about this aircraft so I shall be getting a kit for the stash in the medium term.

Very interesting Gary- looks like a nice kit and a nice build. That’s another one to put on my “to do” list. BUT NOT YET, as I’m still trying to finish my Equinox build and also wondering what to do for a Winter Warmer build!
Looks like a very nice kit once finished glad you did it before l got my hands on it because l would have made all sorts of mistakes and you did well with the spinners and the decals were really fiddly nice weathering well done Gary 👍
Thanks Barry!
I think i will paint the spirals on the spinners before i put them together. I don’t fancy all that trouble with decals
Gary im just wondering if the two holes in the cockpit would be better to drill a pilot hole with a smaller drill bit first then drill withnthe 1mm bi from the other side. Also i tend to agree the propeller spinners spirals are a tad to wide as you can see on the real one in the end of your video . Otherwise it looks like its a lovely little kit and goes together well. 😊
Certainly drilling the hole could have been better - but I was intent on following the instructions and not thinking clearly enough! As for the spirals - I imagine that Airfix did some more research than just looking at the preserved aircraft as they can hold years of mistakes. The props on the Telford aircraft, for example, had received some damage and so were filed down to look more square. I hope (!) Luke at Airfix had plenty of photo references when briefing Cartograf!
Thanks. Awesome' Stuff' as usual Mr.G. All good comments. After seeing the research they do and all the new cad-cam tech,instruction upgrades it is bizarre the mistakes that arent quality controlled out! Didn't someone do a final review? On the pozzie its a lovely looking beast and a nice fresh choice from our mates at Airfix. Despite all efforts i couldnt go to the Telford show and was gutted. 60th anniversary and would have been my first time. Was it as epic as it sounded? Definately next year and hope to meet you in person as well. Glad you are enjoying making your channel as much as we are watching it. Keep up the good work buddy. Love the different segments of reviews,news and builds. The whats new bit is great. Amazing research. Its just going to keep growing. Awesome work!!!!!😊 ( ordered one off the Airfix site as a member with a Shooting Star classic as well. Free postage,10% discount and a free Tiger Moth 1/48 kit!!! A deal to balm the disappointment)
Thanks mate, much appreciated!
Wanted to buy this kit today in the model shop there didn't have it sadly.
Thanks
Thanks Lee! Much appreciated mate.
21:30...the slats (i believe) are for for LOW speed issues. They provide more wing surface area to avoid stalling during landing (and takeoffs). So its highly likely that they would be seen deployed on the ground.
Generally they are for low speed issues but at medium to high speeds pulling a tight turn there is an increased risk of stalling as the wing goes to a high angle of attack, so the slats would help smooth the airflow and allow a bit tighter turn.
Lovely kit, but i agree that the decals seem to let it down.
To my eyes, the spinner decals look like they should be thinner, the width of the band looks too wide.
Glad i watched this before i attempt my kit and no doubt will watch it again once i am ready to start mine sometime in the future.
Hi garry!
1:18 quality editting 👏🏻👏🏻
Hi, can’t see your point……..please assist?
Bob
@@BobMuir100 Pretty sure he means the timing of the bell chime - which is indeed nicely done.
@@adandap thank you and yup I think you are correct, cheers
Bob
Hi Gary, another great build, I don't think I could handle the scale, it's good to see an example of the real aircraft still about, what museum were you at? Best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia
It was at the RAF Museum Midlands, RAF Cosford. A brilliant museum with loads of unique aircraft. The Cold War exhibition is superb.
A good subject Airfix, but for me too small. If it was 1/48 then i would have been interested.
The 1/48 Meng 410 is a beautiful kit👍
Is it monday already,lol.🤣🤣🤣
Gary, what gloss varnish do you use please? And how do you apply it? I always have trouble spraying clears, as I cant see it coming out of the airbrush!!
I use VMS gloss varnish, diluted about 3:1 varnish to water, sprayed through a 0.38mm nozzle in my GHAD-68 airbrush at around 1.4 bar. That gives me enough gloss for decal fixing and for panel washing. For a full gloss finish I'll do one or two top coats as well.
Hi Gary, what color did you use for the mottling please at 37:47? Many thanks
I used the grey-violet of the camouflage scheme.
@@garys_stuff many thanks
What is a hobby store these days, I think the nearest to Sunderland is either in Grainger Market in Newcastle or Station Road in Whitley Bay.
But if you want Railway equipment, I havent got a clue.
How about the model shop on the main road between Chester le Street and Durham??!!
@@MrKevinbrindle I never seen it although I rarely get to Chester- le- Street but go to Durham down the A690. But thank you I will consider it.
Those spiral decals look far too fiddly to fit. If the plane behind you is anything to go by they have made them way to wide as well. If I ever bit this kit I'm afraid there would be now way I'd have the patience to mess about with them for that long.
I would probably do the spirals on the spinners before i assemble the props, so the props don't get in the way. Silly German pilots for painting their spinners. 😉
Hi, apparently the spirals and the other spinner art was a "health and safety" for the ground crew so they could see the prop was turning. I wonder they couldn't hear the engine.
Found very good set of decals on ebay fpr my 410 they make the kit airfix great model poor decals
Why no swastikas?
