The twin guns are m1919 30cal. browning machine guns, the single gun is a browning m2 50 cal. The model sbd used in midway had 2 m2 browning guns in the nose cowling.

5:25, those are actually 30 caliber guns. The two 50-caliber guns were only forward fixed in the engine cowling
Another excellent and thorough review. Another poster mentioned the Dauntless pilot who sank the carrier flagship Akagi and scored a hit on the carrier Hiryu, but did not get a Medal of Honor at Midway---that pilot is Richard Best which Hobby Master released a long time ago (I have one). For some bizarre reason, the Navy has never even named a warship after Best (Hollywood honored Best---he was the main character in the movie MIDWAY a few years ago). All of Hobby Master's pilots look like the bodies recovered at Roswell in 1947.

I have this very model in my collection also , probably my favourite ❤️ Hobby Master also does an optional display stand which I have also which really does complete the model , I don’t normally use stands but this one was crying out for it.

Yup, the meatballs were quickly painted over just after the Battle of the Coral Sea. Painted over too were the red and white stripes on the rudder. In many pictures from Midway, the ghost images of the meatball and stripes are still visible.
One last thing: You call the nose-down attitude of the bomber on the stand the "dive bombing" position. Forgive me if you know this, but in case not, dive bombers of this period bombed diving straight down, vertically. That way they were far more accurate than if they were diving at an angle, because the bomb didn't keep moving horizontally. This is why the "trapeze" is needed to swing the bomb out to clear the prop. So I'm thinking of hanging mine from the ceiling with nearly invisible fishing line attached to the tail. With dive brakes deployed it should look like a real attack. Fletcher
We need more hobby master videos, these planes are awesome. I recently bought a hobby master f-16 from the Hellenic airforce and the quality of the plane is great. I suggest you have a look at it because I believe it has one of the best paint jobs you can find in an f-16, it’s code is HA3870. Greetings from Greece🇬🇷.

It's to show that the previous markings, with the red circle, have been overpainted. It's a little too strongly visible but a nice way of showing.
I think I probably say this every video, " this is the best kit yet", however, this is the best kit yet :-) I think the die cast makes a big difference on appearance. Airframe wise, this aircraft had to be built super stout, standard dive was 70% dive angle pulling 4 g' s . Encountering the heavy AAA, like at Midway, pilots had to go up to a level of 6- 9 g's before bomb release . Pilot really had to work on staying out of g- lock. The poor gunner was really strapped in, usually blacked out during dive due to g load then went to positive g throwing him forward. During Battle of Midway there was one pilot who hit two carriers and a heavy cruiser, I'll never understand why he did not receive Medal of Honor . To imagine g load you have to compare WW2 to today's pilots Flying F22 and F35, you must qualify to sustain 9 g load without g lock. The German Stuka was designed to drop bomb automatically and to pull out of dive automatically to account for pilot blackouts. Luftwaffe wanted to stop making them because they were SO slow, however, they were also accurate that's why they were produced throughout war. Maverick probably couldn't fly the Dauntless :-) Oh, notice the decals , they took out the red center so they would not be confused for Japanese..
