Nice!

Would it work on the Dutch version Trumpeter kit? I only have that one in my stash...

Cheers,

Christophe

I meant can I build this GERMAN upgraded version using the Trumpeter DUTCH kit? I don't have the Trumpeter German Fennek but I have their Dutch Fennek.

Hi Christophe,
while I don`t have the the Dutch Fennek a conversion should be possible.To my knowledge the difference es between the German and the Dutch version is only the .50 cal. m.g. attached on the KMW 1530 OWS. Since you change the 1530 for the FLW200, no bigger problems should appear.
Here:

you can check the contents of the German Fennek and whats the difference between both kits.
Cheers

Maybe this helps: here' s a thread (from my german forum). Swordfish there built the german version out of the NL one. He couldn't wait for trumpeters Bundeswehr kit. Sorry, it's in german but with a lot of pics

Just to know. Do someone have the poly caps to put inside the rims ?



I don't have them in my kit, but it is not a problem to put the wheels on the vehicle.
