Hi guys,

Last weekend I've started to work on the M561 Gama Goat from Commander Models and I must say: What a hell of a work !!!!!
It's impossible to work out the way the suspension must be fixed to the underframe !
The instructions just show some black and white images with NO details or what so ever !!!
Are the instructions from the Gama Goat from Perfect Scale Model also that bad ?
If not, perhaps someone is willing to scan them and send them to me ???

Any help will be appreciated !!!!!

Ge',

I've got good diagrams for the Commanders Gamma Goat wheel attachments. I will send to you when I get back home this week.

Ge

I know...the instructions for the suspension truly inhale!. When I built mine I looked at some actual pictures to figure it out. Here are some help for some of the mystery assembly

Hi guys,

Dave, I just sent you a PM.

Mike, thanks for the links.
I already had a look at your build-log at Finescale.
Nice model, i plan to make mine with a shelter in the back and a FAAR-radar !

By the way: Jon Warneke from Commander Models send me a detailed instruction sheet !
It seems that they had forgotten to put it in the box !
Can happen !!!
