Edit: I've checked some info that madcat PMed me and i got a few questions. Perhaps someone could help me.
Judging for the pictures the Me264 had a V shaped tail section (like the on in the He162), but the drawings i've seen are inconclusive since some show a straight one and others the V-shaped version. This is more confusing since there's no way to operate a single piece elevator in a V-shaped tail and all the drawings show that it is single pieced rather than two separate elevators.
The other question is: This landing gear configuration with the Wing gears folding laterally to fit into the engine/wing is absurdly complex and i had some hard time modeling it. But i came across one drawing that showed the same configuration as in the Ju188, with the gear folding backwards to fir inside the larger BMW801E engine (the first gear configuration was designed when they used the smaller Jumo engine). I believe that they had not enough time to change the gear after changing the engine configuration, but that the production version (A-0 or A-1) would have the same configuration as the Ju188. Should i go for the Ju188 style gear or keep it like it is?
I think the problem and some thing I guess I should of mentioned is that some of the drawings are from promotional brochure, so there not like technical drawings and some thing I didn't notice till I started scanning them into is that ever drawing has some small change.
I under stand what your say about the V tail I don't think it would of had that tail arrangement, more then likely V3 would of had the same tail layout as the V1 prototype.
With the landing gear I'm note shore because I can't spot what image your talking about, but I would say that for the V3 it would have the same landing gear arrangement as in your model.
I'll PM you my Messenger details if you wish to try sort out any issues.
