They could perhaps implement the fairings as air-breaks: Up is off, down is on. One of the problems of the Daffy (and Skua) was that lowering the fairings for action would severely hit speed. Being slightly oldish, they would have problems keeping up with "modern" designs like the He 111 and Ju 88 as it was, lowering the fairings would really give them problems.
I really hope they make it flyable! |

On further reading of my book'Boulton Paul Defiant by Mark Ansell,the fairings were incorporated,so that the air flow was'nt interupted through the rudder.
Apparantly they had major problems aerodynamically as soon as the turret was fitted.
