Yu ModeL New Airbus A300 First Look

Yu said that the nose gear height will be fixed in the next production. Apparently they are making some retail exclusive models which are unannounced
YU should also sell these future improved landing gears separately so that we can try to change them ourselves on the models already purchased, as much as possible.
As a future improvement path for all manufacturers, perhaps magnetic landing gears at 1/400 as found in 1/200, which would also solve the problems of breakage.
It’s an idea.

According to them, they said the mold has been sent for modification, and subsequent products will have the improved landing gear.
I’m hoping they can address the nose which tbh I’m surprised no one seems to notice. It’s definitely snub nosed and not as ‘prominently more elongated’ if I could give it that description. That sticks out to me like a sore thumb. The APU which not very obvious to the naked eye, should have the exhaust facing in a slanted upward angle too. But that is not a major train crash, however it’s still evident that the QC is not quite 100% on this model imo

I agree with you, I also think the nose looks a bit strange.
 
IMHO the nose looks better than all the competition (which isn't that hard). The nose down attitude needs refinement though.

However, the expectations that some collectors have are way unrealistic. This is 1/400 and still many models look as good as their 1/200 counterparts for thrice the price.
