HX has dropped pics of its 744 mould. First release will be Air China’s B-2445.

This is a JC clone?

 

[Mark22]

Looks very similar yes, we'll have to wait for someone to make a direct comparison between the two.

 

[VDH.FliesOut]

So far, it looks really promising. My only criticism are the landing gear, especially the nose gear. They look comically large and make the model too tall

 

[Sithan400]

Not sure if it's oversized, but the nose landing gear does seem to be tilted forward. Otherwise, the semblance to JC is a compliment, since the JC new 744 mould is currently the best out there. I do think that the forehead looks to be better than JC's, and similar to NG's. Looking forward to future releases.

I agree about the nosegear. The gear door is to large and the gear leg a little chunky.

This is absolutely amazing, a great mould only with a price of 200rmb (about 20 pounds)which is INSANE

Where'd you see these listed?

That's right though - as those previous 'YY' labeled 748s were 145-160 MYR on MHH

So these will be even cheaper - guess that's why NGlite is a good strategy - as the prices are benchmarked at this 'budget' segment

If they're so cheap, it probably means they barely had development costs, showing its a copied JC mould?

Great another 747-400 mould, which no one has asked for. And it looks like a POS so I'm sure these will sell well in China who it is aimed at.

it is not the same as jc,just look at the nose and fuselage cross section. It is better than jc

There is not a single modern 744 mould without issues. This one is most welcome.

Models are often a lot cheaper in China. It won't be retailing at those prices in the West I bet!

 

[LeoMuse747]

It looks great IMO but I agree about the gear issues, specially the nose gear!

The mould is getting there, the wing root still needs some refinement with the shape
