GMK Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Guys, Just 'discovered' Macross Zero and the VF-0 (thanks VF-0 Master File). One of the builds online has chaff/flare buckets added to the arms. Does anyone have a reference for this, or is it creative licence? Also, any pics of the refuelling probe & recess would be helpful.

VF5SS Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Here you go! I always though the chaff and flare dispenser was in the backpack myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMK Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Thanks - that was the scene I was thinking of. Still can't find any pics of the outside though! Nagmammit! This is the build I was talking about: http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=210908 Regards, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If you want to, chaff/flare dispensers are extremely universal/generic. Many many planes all use the same system. "ALE-47" is the most common/standard one I know of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechTech Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 It looks as though they just used .010" styrene cutout with generic photoetched grill details. you can do it man! - MT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMK Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Thanks guys! I'm pretty confident with scratchbuilding & mods, I'm just keen to confirm whether the 'real' (anime?) VF-0 had the c/f fitted in the locations as modelled in the other link. Regards, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWR MKII Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 The Chaff /flare dispenser is located on the "backpack" it will be on the underside in fighter mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
