Hi Martyn I was thinking of doing my MK2 up as a wasp.It has the hole cut in the center plate for one and I have the tank for a Wasp M11c .The one that goes across the back .I will have to make the rest of the parts . Have you got the book by Roger V Lucy , isbn 978-1 894581-49-3 .I picked up one while in Toronto . Nigel Watson's Volume 2 has some good information on them .My buddy said Make it shoot water .great for parades
