    I hope you will elaborate at some time on how this rear gun works. Presumably you will have a similar set up for the bow gun? Really good that you are sharing the details, it may inspire others to build their own model. 👍

    I'm really going to enjoy this one the hull details are brilliant well done Fleetscale, as soon as I fit the guns (a mixture of Fleetscale and John Haynes for ultimate detail) I'll post the methods used and Thanks Dave 👍

A bit further on

picture 1 shows the two componant kits to produce the correct guns for Cavalier,the light coloured are the Fleetscale and the darker are John Haynes.
I hope you agree the effort of cut and shut is worth it to provide good looking guns when they are rotating
