You dont see alot of these around these days, but when you do, they are like this example. Even still had the original 260 Windsor V8 and hubcaps.
Taken at Horsham Car & Bike Show, Victoria in 2012.

The kit and its assembly:
My third contribution to the “RAF Centenary” Group Build at whatifmodelers.com, and the next one in chronological order. This one was spawned by the simple thought of “What would a Spitfire with a radial engine look like…?”. I have seen this stunt done in the form of a Fw190/Spitfire kitbash – nice result, but it did IMHO just not look like a “real” Spitfire with a radial engine, rather like an Fw 190 with elliptical wings. And the fact that I had already successfully transplanted a Centaurus engine onto a P-51 airframe made me feel positive that the stunt could be done!
Consequently, the conversion was pretty straightforward. The basis is a Revell 1:72 Spitfire VB (1996 mold), which was – except for the nose section – taken OOB. A simple, nice kit, even though it comes with some flaws, like a depression at the rear of the wing/fuselage intersection and the general need for PSR – not much, but I expected a better fit for such a relatively young mold?
For the engine, I used a personal replacement favorite, the cowling and the engine block from a Mitsubishi A6M2 “Zero” (Hasegawa). The Nakajima Sakae radial engine has a relatively small diameter, so that it serves well as a dummy for the compact Bristol Taurus engine – a replacement I have already used for a radial-powered Westland Whirlwind. The other benefit of the small diameter is that it is relatively easy to blend the round front end into the oval and very slender fuselage of the early Spitfire airframe. This was realized through massive body sculpting from scratch with 2C putty, widening the area in front of the cockpit and expanding its width to match the cowling – I guess that real life engineers would have followed a similar, simple path.
Since the radial engine would not need a radiator, I simple omitted this piece (cut out from the single piece lower wing half) and faired the respective underwing area over with a piece of styrene sheet and PSR. The asymmetrical oil cooler was retained, though. The propeller is a replacement from the scrap box, with a smaller diameter spinner and more slender blades which better suit the open cowling.
Since the Taurus had its best performance at low altitudes, I used the Revell kit’s OOB option of clipped wing tips – a move that makes the aircraft look much faster, esp. with the new, deeper nose section.
Compacto pra quem vê. Surpreendente pra quem anda.
Revolucionário, o Fox foi totalmente pensado nas necessidades e conforto do motorista e dos passageiros. Isso tudo porque ele foi construído seguindo o conceito "Designed Around the Passengers" (desenvolvido ao redor dos passageiros).
Novidades
Desde o painel até o design exterior, o Novo Fox é totalmente novo e surpreendente.

Here is another version of Brooks' BCKK.
Next to the BCKK other components of this rig are:
- Ricoh GR digital
- Prinzler's 433TxRx
- GentSwitches and a Gent1V5
- BW video link
- Breuer 360 servo
- Ricoh CA-1 remote cable
The customer wanted an electronic shutter release but the Ricoh has no IR-sensor nor a switchable input. But a remote control cable is an accessory. This unit has a lot of electronics inside and is powered by its own 1.5 V AAA battery.
I modified this Ricoh part by taking out its internals and have it triggered by the 433TxRx remote control through 2 electronic switches.
To get rid of the 1.5 V battery a 4.8 to 1.5 V converter was added. All these parts are in the black box that is fitted on the tilt frame behind the camera.
The client wanted to have the rig to fit in a very strong and watertight Storm Case iM2075. This required a very compact version of the BCKK and so some tricks had to come in:
- the legs were shortened by 6 cm.
- the tilt axis is moved upwards by mounting the tilt servo upside down and drilling an extra hole in the left leg of the main frame.
- this caused contact between the black box and the pan servo. This problem was solved by adding two 5 mm spacers between the main frame and the gear bracket. Now the top of this bracket is at the same level as the battery pack.
Every time I build a BCKK I'm surprised by its possiblities.
Trying out the “compact” Sony RX1 let me to believe that modern “rolleiflexes” (massive top of consumer image quality packed in a small and portable solution) could very well exist outside of the overfamed Leica brand. While the sensor display similar greatness as modern 24mp fullframe Sony sensors (seen in the Nikon D600/D610, Sony a99/a7), the 35mm Zeiss Lens makes the entire experience very enjoyable by providing a balanced look in colors/sharpness/contrast/bokeh that is very hard to match. Found at 1600$, the solution represents an amazing value for those who pair the camera with say an RX100 or want to carry the smallest and highest image quality producing camera.
The build quality of the body is near perfect as no detail or corners have been cut. The only complain is that the body itself gets heavy after an hour of handholding (I was really treating it like a point and shoot)
AF isn't it’s strong point though, people wanting quicker AF would want to invest in the A7. Some quirks like not using the smallest f number in shutter priority mode don’t really prevent this from being an amazing camera to recommend.
By setting the camera profile to “Deep” in the develop module of Lightroom, you will already achieve a great look to work on from the get go. This streamlines the workflow even more than any other files I’ve worked with.
If there is a camera today that's the perfect mariage between sensor and lens, this is probably IT.
I really loved the RX1

Halterung für COMPACT-dynamo,
Ausführung für Federgabel Disc-Brake,
Ansicht von oben
- WICHTIGER HINWEIS:
Montagen von Dynamos und anderen Anbauteilen am Rahmen, immer nur VOR Rahmenteilen wie Gabelrohren oder Sitzstreben (in Fahrtrichtung gesehen), NIE auf der in Fahrtrichtung hinten liegenden Seite, denn dadurch wird grundsätzlich verhindert, dass sich Anbauteile zwischen Rahmen und Laufrad verkeilen können, falls sich mal eine Halteschraube lockern sollte.
This adapter allows me to use a IDE disk or CF card on my Sinclair +3.
I've had to install 2 new EPROMS in the machine for it to support IDE devices.
CF card is 128Mb, but as the interface in only 8 bit, only half of the cards capacity is available. Still, 64Mb is a lot of storage for a spectrum!

This is what the trash compactor at my apartment building looks like after the Thanksgiving holiday. For some reason, the other residents have problems getting it to work, so they leave their trash stacked up here. I've 'fixed' the compactor and cleared the area before, but I just couldn't bring myself to be the trashperson again. Shame on me.
