I have copied this topic from Dario's build to start a topic dedicated to the topic of the sights used on this gun, so some posts that don't fit have been eliminated(they remain in the original topic thread viewtopic.php?f=18&t=227 in works in progress) Here are the sources that Dario mentions.

Hi everybody: in the Concord's book "German Artillerie at War" by Frank De Sisto, page 11, second pic, can be seen an instrument panel being manipulated by a crew. Ok, now the question:
that panel must be in ALL the 2cm flakvierling 38?
Dragon Sd.Kfz. 7/1 doesn't provide such part and I can't find more pics of it
Thanks
Darío

Yep. that guy is. So..."there may have been different versions" Hmmm What to do...what to do....to build or not to build

Thanks James!

Seems that Tamiya did the same thing does. This has a later gun-sight.


If you need it the Griffon set seems to have it

a picture from the one in the gallery.
no control panel. Perhaps you can dig into this for us and find out how many versions of the gun there was?

a scan from a book shows that there is no such panel on this one

When a wrote "to build or not to built" I'm referring to scrachtbuild (or not) the Flakvisier 38/40 and then the control panel That will make my model "different" from others

Thanks Jamie!!!
