Model teaser from HX model, partially physical.

I guess I'm the only one who sees pics on MAF only when I'm lucky. The load times strongly remind me on my good old 28.8k modem. Anyone else?

You're viewing it on the desktop?

Do my eyes deceive me, or do the gears look better in length?

hard to tell since the pictures are mostly from a high angle

However the cockpit windows do look fixed

Mobile, desktop and MAF app - and no matter the device. Now as I'm typing this, pics load normally, but they very often don't as soon as there are several larger images. Often the entire site freezes. (I go via 300Mbit WLAN or even 1Gbit LAN)
Only ever experience this on MAF.
Sorry for OT.

Edit: slow again

How do you all use Taobao? Do you read Chinese or is there an English site somewhere? I know some browsers can do machine translations, but I don’t trust them.

you don't trust them lol..... and taobao doesn't ship to usa, so you need to wait for these to pop up on Ebay.

Try finding a tutorial on Youtube about how to buy on Taobao.
I bought my HX B747-100 from Taobao using a tutorial on Youtube (in Portuguese only, though).
Basically you have to use a freight forwarder company to handle the shipping from China to your country. I've used Sugargoo and it was flawless.

Just having this now but the MAF seems to load significantly slower for me now, especially for pictures too

It clearly shows they shortened the gearleg comparing to earlier releases

Definitely a little shorter! That’s great, and I hope the same applies to the main gear height.

Right would like to see that - the correct #2, #3 engine clearance will seal the deal

There is an English language option depending where you live, or what country you have it set too, but note many sellers only sell using the Chinese language version, so using a translate is helpful.

Overall, this mould is pretty great, but man, that forward wing to fuselage join really ruins it for me.

It isn't too bad IMO
