The skins are coming along slowly, just need to adjust the roundels then I'll be on to adding the lines.
Looking for a good picture of a Nakajima Homare engine if anyone knows where I can get good head on photos of it.

Thank you for having adopted this minor Japanese plane.
However, I have one point of concern.
The cross section of the fuselage looks circular, but the actual aircraft has a square cross section (like the JU-88). Also, there is what looks like a window next to the center of the fuselage, is this not an inspection panel?
I see that the "電光"="DENKOU" has some interesting features, such as flaps that also serve as air brakes, a movable machine gun, and an auxiliary cockpit that can be moved up and down. I would love to see that happen as well.

Hi araeashi, as you may have noticed, the model is still under development and Dandolo is really putting his heart and soul into making this aircraft as real as possible to the exact model. So yes you are right about everything but be patient and you will not be disappointed

The plane has been realized on the draws found on war thunder post and what is described on japanese is not understandable to me.
 About what araeashi has kindly noted:
1. The plane's sections change from circular, in the bow, to square in the central part, and again circular/elliptical to the stern.
2.i have no news about flaps that work also as airbrakes
3. The rear gun turret rotates and shots
4. I have no news about the rear canopy that goes up and down;
5. The square lateral openings are hatchs with glasses,  as I have understood from the draws,  but they can be converted to panel.
6. All wished moviments must be realized with java coding about which I have no skills.
If some work on java will be done on them, I could be very happy .

All suggestion will be welcome to improve this plane.

Best regards and thanks for appreciation.

Hallo 101tfs,  very kind.
I have thought about this interesting configuration.
But it is very controversial.
Infact , the shooting of these guns would have created smokes ,oil and other troubles to the pilot.
But , probably,  we never know what was in mind to japanese engineers.

Hello, Dandolo513.

Sorry, I did not see the war thunder post.
I don't have much information on the DENKO. The additional prototypes were stopped at the end of 1944, so I don't know what the prototype looked like when it was being built.
I imagine that the oblique machine gun was turned upward in conjunction with the rear turning machine gun. Therefore, I can imagine that the auxiliary canopy used for rear-firing sighting had to be retracted.
I have some drawings of the aircraft, and I would be happy if you could refer to them. I wish you the best of luck.
