Finally had some more time to continue my built.
I have still a lot of work left in the forward driver/RO compartment but before I start guessing I am still very much looking for some information re the Radio equipment layout in the RO Compartment.
{Quote} In regards to the location of the radio gear I haven't manage to gather any information where what was installed. I have various layouts for a Panzer III, Panzer IV or STUG layout and if I have to make a decision I am leaning toward the Panzer III locations. I am trying to locate a copy of the Dienstvorschrift (D653-45) which deals with the radiogear installed in the Nashorn. If anyone knows who has a copy or where I can get the info any help would be appreciated. There are only two Nashorn left today ( APG Aberdeen and Kubinka) and I don't know if trhey hold any info. It looks like the one in the APG proving ground has a large granate hole in the front plate so I am wondering maybe someone made some pics thru this hole from the Radio operator side. Any help or pictures of this area would be greatly apprerciated.
Any Help would be very much appreciated.
In the mean time I keep going with the many PE parts for the upperstructure. Slowly getting the hang of working with PE, its just getting the time to have a good go at it.
Here are some pics of the air in/outlets which are included in the Voyager set.
Grill 01.jpg
Topleft pic shows one grille assembled with the kit part below as reference. On the right are the parts for the other grille. I superglued the parts and the reult is a definite improvement over the kit part.
Grill 02.jpg
Here I temporarely glued it in the side wall again with the kit part as reference to the side.
Here a closer look at the grille in situ and you can clearly see the crisp detail.

I am happy with the result and the voyager sets are in my opinion a nice improvement of the already nice and crisp kit parts.

Testfitted the upperstructure PE parts and ofcourse with my luck there were enough discrepencies. It seems the dragon kit dimensions are a fraction smaller than the Voyager set.
Here some pics.Misfit 01.jpg
of the rear of the AFV. There is a gap of a couple of mm.
Similar story at the front of the upperstructure.
Misfit 02.jpg.
Started with the back end and with masking tape attached the parts for a proper fit.
Here the excess at the rear.
Misfit 04.jpg
I cut the excess with a pair of keflar snips and filed for a smooth finished.
Here progress before the filing.
Misfit 05.jpg
At the front I had to file the bottom part to bring the whole wall closer to the hull, there is a strengtening bracket on the rear vehicle which will hide this hopefully.
Here you can see that after the filing everything fits nicely.

Just saw this post on Missing Lynx and remembered that you requested info on the radio area.

Tim,
Cheers Mate
Christmas, Easter and Birthday seem to fall on the same day, These are great shots.
Started slowly to give up hope, These will be a greaty help in correctly locating some of the gear.
Have some interior shots from the Hummel and believed they would be similar to the Nashorn but these shots proved this theory wrong.
Looking forward to Monday to have another go at the forward compartment of the built.
This forum rocks.
