"Mayflower" Yuanqing models

[Aantaug]

Hi everybody. I'm sorry for my poor English. I started building models a few years ago. Assembled: HMS "Beagle" (Occre), "Adventure Pirate schooner" (Amati), "Gunboat" (Milania). On pause, "Brigantine Phoenix" (Milania) is a very small size for me. I ordered a "Mayflower" from Yuanqing Models. Who has information about the company? The address of the official website?

Hi Shipbuilder!
I bought this same model. It's currently on pause along with Mamoli HMS Bounty and Panart San Felipe. I bought the Mayflower fthrough ZHL, who only distributes it. I could not find a web site for them or any other info. I downloaded Google Translate and it helps a lot with the translation. I've been working on Panart's Armed Launch.
I think you are pretty much on your own when it comes to answering uestions or replacing missing parts.
Use your skill and fill in the blanks using your best judgment. The finished product will turn out fine.

Fixing the keel frame. Making a boat. Wooden parts. Not plywood. That's good.

Thank you! This model requires a thoughtful approach. It's more like a model created from scratch, like they do in Croatia.

Here we go! The box containing the set is of decent quality. The dent is from shipping.

YuanQing models are derivatives from ZHL like other Chinese distributors who purchase ZHL and put their name on the box. ZHL are well know for pirating a lot of the well known European model companies kits and selling these at well below their retail prices and in doing so stealing lot of their trade.

I'm flying to Shanghai on January 14th. For work. The last time I was there was five years ago. I'll try to find something there. This is what he looked like.

There are no instructions. There is a part sheet. There is a CD-ROM. I have four computers at home. They don’t have CD-ROM drives. I’ll try to make something at the office tomorrow. The drawings are in 1:1 format. Made on a photocopier. The quality is very poor.

Not sure how much you want to invest in this model but CD-Rom drives that are portable and use a USB port run about $20
