Hi everyone, I just purchased a M1A1 Aim tank produced by Dragon. I was wondering if the suspension arms and wheels are supposed to be glued in place after being put in a desired position, or are they somehow intended to be a moving and rotating setup?
Giving this a bump for Zcar71.
Just about every Dragon kit I’ve ever seen of built intended for the suspension to be static, i.e., “glued”.
Also, I guess it depends on what you plan to do with your model, too? Do you plan to display it in a diorama going over something? Then you might leave them unglued until you get your base figured out and planned. I"d wager you’d glue them in place, however.
They are intended to be glued in place. They are keyed and can be set at any angle to articulate the suspension over uneven terrain as the doog is talking about.
Thanks for the advice everyone.
