It broke so I'm making a poured resin one instead with real rubber tires.  :-)

I know that the connectors don't have pins and there are a lot of
other problems involved with scale models.  That's a good part of why
there won't be any such model made.  I would love to find an airframe
(or portion thereof) to build up an accurate display but 1.) airframes
in my price range tend to be in short supply, and 2.) where would I
put it?  The 1:4 scale model idea grew out of the ensuing frustration.

Oh, well.  Flames anyone?
