Something similar but not on an airplane here, but it is a antenna.

Re: ID help Studio Scale Probe Droid / A wing
Nice find on the gepard parts ! Wooo at least 6 Gepard kits only for that ? :lol
Yeah I reckon that's odd for the hinges bro, but they still can be cut easily with a thin saw, took 5 secondes per hinges ! I will check my other kits and try to find separate hinges, but the ones on the 232 kit are perfect in size and details, and if you look carefully at them on each hinge, one half of the hinge is roughly shaped, could be the half which is part of the hatch ?
OK, bit of an odd one, cant seem to find a hinge detail as a standalone part, but, the rear fin hinges, look spot on to what are used on the 8rad flaps......is it possible ILM actually went to the trouble of trimming these from the flaps :lol Maybe im not looking hard enough :lol
Oh and vectral mounts, these are Gepard buddy, same part used on the rear upper hull, so youll need multiples of this kit if your not casting!

Bro ive been looking, nothing so far, seems to me they are cut from the 232, weird, but very ILM :lol
Yeah looks to be around 6 Gepards for sure, man, so much has been found now, i wanna build one :lol
As for that top antennae Michael, still no clue, but why do i get some form of droptank thingy in mind?

Ya but would a drop tank have that extra flash around the outside parameter?
That part doesn't look like it would have another half to it.

Re: ID help Studio Scale Probe Droid / A wing
True Michael, it is an odd shape, but, to be an actual antennae from a kit, hmm thats one BIG kit lol.
Maybe its not a kit part at all, could be scratchbuilt for the hell of it, looks to be white in media going by the scuff on the front, possibly just vac formed styrene....tricky!

Yes, that's what I think it is too. The only one I've seen are the half track winches. Can't provide any more info yet...

It would have to be around 60mm long or so.
