Frigate & Battle Frigate Models

[Wolverine-X]

Can someone tell me where the antenna/radar dish is mounted on the Frigate & Battle Frigate Models? It isn't at all clear how to assemble this piece.

Thanks in advance!

It goes on the bottom of the saucer section, right in the middle. I had trouble making sure it stayed pointing in the right direction as it's really small for my fingers.

 

[Renny]

Thanks. I was going to ask this as well.

I use a set of fine tweezers to position mine. Once in place, a quick shot of zip-kicker accelerator and you're good to go.

Good advice all round.

Incidentally, when the initial rush is over, we are debating about revisiting this ship and perhaps casting it with an integrated deflector dish. Will let you all know how it goes!

I think this would be a great change.

That's how the ADB ships are cast, and they sometimes distort. Separate pieces usually produce better/cleaner castings.
