Clearly I live in a hole/basement/work related environment!
Thanks for the other heads up, variety is the spice of life after all!
Kind regards all
Dan.
EDIT- Sorry, being a twonk. Didn't realise that both Rimnods are different versions.

and as stated, i have already spoken to brian, and he is also producing new variants, so there will be lots to choose from
the UKMIL version will NOT have a VC tho, and will prob not be as good as the Simshed, but it will give users a choice

I suppose that's in the same way the FA.2 was not produced in direct opposition to the AP designs one...

DC..
Whoever is making them, could you ask that they tone down the AE wires by more than a fair degree mate. These are
way over the top at the mo and detract from an otherwise smart looking model

Half-inch thick steel hawsers vice aerial wire is a pet hate of mine!!

Hi UKMil
whoever is making the Rimnod ???.
tone down the wires by making them slightly transparent (240 to 250)
in materials of FSDS
when viewed in FSDS they are just about invisible when you have then thin enough (hard to explain but you will see).
then they don't go jaggy or hit you in the face.
Regards
Rick
