Hi there! I´m about building a Mig-17 from Hobby Boss with a lot extras from Quickboost and I ran headlong into my first trouble. I used the ejection seat and also the wheelbays from Quickboost. As I wanted to mate the finished cockpit together with the two frontal aircraft sides I discovered that the ejection seat is way too deep inside the cockpit . Since it is my first aircraft since ages (I usually finish these dirty camouflaged things which are crawling around on the ground with big noise) maybe I was somehow wrong with my installaition but I can not see any glaring mistake on my side. The cockpit and the wheelbase seems to fit properly but the ejection seat is too low for at least 5 mm! I made some quick pictures for you to see what I did until now. Maybe you can help me whats wrong:
