QMx Flying Mule Pics
My Flying Mule Replica has arrived and QMx has done it again. Like the BDR, the detail and quality is amazing.

Re: QMx Flying Mule Pics
This is most sweet-looking!! I'm not a Serenity fan but this one rocks! How much was it? It wasn't made in China was it?

Re: QMx Flying Mule Pics
They are $349.95 at the QMx site. And yes, they are made in China but don't let that scare you away. The quality is outstanding.

Re: QMx Flying Mule Pics
My First Mod
I wasn't completely satisfied with the way the main engines mounted. The side of the engine had a square hole that mounted on a square peg on the Mule. I was worried that they would fall off if I moved the replica. Here is my solution: I made a template that fit into the mounting hole on the engine and drilled two 3/16" holes.  I inserted refrigerator magnets into the holes drilled into the engine. I thought I was going to need some epoxy but it was a nice snug fit.   Using the same template, I transferred the hole pattern to the square mount on the Mule and inserted a second set of magnets.  And then "SNAP"! A nice strong mount. It actually takes a little bit of downward twist to get the engine off for future storage. Now to repeat the process for the L/H engine.
