I'm not sure if this should be on the Hobby board but here goes. Does the Burst cannon on your Devilfish rotate and if so, how did you do it? The gun tilts up and down on mine but I can't figure out how to assemble it so it turns on the hull?! ???

...Really? I followed the instructions on mine and the Burst Cannon tilts up and down, and aswell moves from left to right. Perhaps you guled something vital?

Are you supposed to glue the cannon assebly in before the hull gets glued together?

I'm actually don't remember if I glued the gun assembly to anything...gah, I can't remember! It'd be best if you read those picky instructions again...Sorry I could be any more help! :-\

Hey, I just did one of those!

The only part that you're supposed to glue is the part on the very bottom that connects to the hull of the ship. If you do it right, that'll hold the rotating parts in place and they can still move. However, if you glue that part to the semi-spherical? part that holds the cannon, the whole thing won't be able to rotate.

I'm at school now, but if you're still having some problems with it, I'll come back with some pictures. ;D

Yeah, you're only supposed to glue that one lip thing at the bottom, and even then you're not supposed to glue it to the gun housing. You just glue the back part of it to the hull of the ship, and stick the entire gun housing, with no glue, in, and then place the lip.

See the link in my sig (Modular tanks conversion).. have a look at the front turret section, you only put glue on the part where I’ve used magnets to hold the ‘t’ piece in place.

yeah...( :-\ *sigh*) mine just wiggles feebly

until I take an X-acto knife to it that is! >
