Thanks for posting this! I tried this design and it was an improvement - the airplane sat level. After experimenting some more, I found a variation that I recommend: attach the 1x5 and 1x9 arms as shown in the video, but use the 1x13 arms to brace between the ends of the 1x9 arms and the technic bricks in the base of the stand (12th holes in the arms to the furthest-forward open holes in bricks). This creates support in front of the model's center of gravity and completely eliminates the tip-forward problem. Now the stand holds the model nose-up as if they were welded together.
good mod! I was having the same issue with my stand also that the jet would want to tip forward easily when moved. I will make sure to try modifying the stand as you have shown.
It was built with digital instructions from Brickmania. I think they are no longer available. Then are selling an F-14 kit again. Here is a link to it. www.brickmania.com/f-14d-tomcat-supersonic-fighter-aircraft/

Cool, glad that with some modification you were able to get the F-14 to display the way you wanted.
Thank you!! Greatly appreciated!
You're very welcome, thanks for watching.

Let me know how the mod works out for you. It was the fix I needed for mine. Have a good day.
Great modification!
Thanks!
I may be late, I haven't been watching recently... but congrats on 3K subs!

Awesome stand it’s better
Thanks, it works much better now with the mod.
Yea your welcome
Your f-14 is way better than my
I built my from scratch I can’t afford a actual set
I'm currently working on a fighter jet myself. It's turned from a f-5 to a f-36 with a hint of f-16
I built this using digital instructions that I purchased from brickmania.com
@@secretsquirrelbricks693 oh ok
Where did you buy this at? It’s like finding where’s Waldo?
