ollyhills Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Hi! I was wondering if anyone with an RS scout or enough knowledge of the real thing would know the distance between these points? (The second one is across the headband from circle to circle, if that wasn’t clear) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I can measure my own helmet later, but these measurements from the actual screen helmet might help: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollyhills Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 Thanks for the replies guys. Yea I have the image with those measurements. basically I’m concerned I’ve cut my two helmet halves short or at a slight angle or something because for the life of me I can’t get them together neatly. Maybe I haven’t and I just need to cut back some more in places, but I don’t want to risk. These front and back measurements should help me know exactly where I am 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about round the headband, circle to circle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatfoodRob Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 If you bought a genuine RS from the studio, it would have come with a pencil mark around the helmet half’s , indicating the cut line . did you cut it shorter than the pencil line ? If so you may need to assemble it with a gap which you will fill after assembly and before paint . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
