..........and a correct one, no outer wing guns ans a "Erla"
mount for the drop tank.
I guess it is the Dragon kit? I had the same problem with
the angle of the undercarriage.

Best wishes

Thank you very much everyone for your comments!
I'll try to improve even more for my next project and as you can see this was made in 2009.
Yes, the drop tank this wrong but is easy fix, this is a somewhat difficult kit to build.
Greetings from Barquisimeto, Venezuela.

Hi Carlos, why is the drop tank wrong ? The mount is correct
for this plane !
My first Dragen 190 gave me fits, while assembling the cowling
