ChrisM Posted September 29, 2015 Report Posted September 29, 2015 Most if not all kits don't include antennas for their vehicles. Even Dragon with their high cost. For instance I'm working on the Michael Wittmann Tiger l (kit 6730) and it actually includes 3 antenna mounts for his command vehicle. Then Dragon turns around and provides 3 little stubs that wouldn't pick up reception on an AM radio. I have made my own in the past using bristles from black plastic brooms and made whips by melting and stretching sprues, but finding quality after-market antennas for one's particular model is daunting at best. Does anyone have any tips or sources? Thanks, Chris M.
802chrisg Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 Chris, check out RB models. They have 4cm & 2cm antennas. Also they have mounts (bases) if you want to replace them as well. They are made of brass. Chris G. :Smile_sceptic:
ChrisM Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I have ordered a aluminum barrel for a JagdTiger and the only problem was it took 3 weeks. I did go ahead and order some antennas this morning hoping this shipment will arrive a bit faster. Thanks for the tip!
