I dunno if this is the right chat channel to post it in but I'm setting out to do the 'difficult' and that is to magnetize all 4 of the ork flyers using just one kit. I've had a quick flick through the build manual and although there are a few common assembly constructs between all 4 the Wazbom BlastaJet seems to be the most different from the Blitza-Bommer, Burner-Bommer and the DakkaJet with it's weird tale and rear gun turret. Ideally I would like to have all different configs built and painted as shown in the box art / assembly manual and manetized to look that way but I'm not sure it that will be possible. I'm reasonablly adept at magnetizing (did a Razorback/Rhino with all different gun weapons options) but I would like any ponters / help / advice on how to go about this. I have multple boxes of Ork Flyer kits so if it is not possible then maybe I could magnetize to accommodate two configs per kit e.g. Wazbom Blastajet/Blitza Bomma and for a separate kit Nurna-Bommer/Dakkajet... depending on say, if the wings are titlted and the tail is in a certain config. .... please give me your suggestions !!!!! note I've found a few blogs with a few steps but they are a little basic and not as advanced as maybe I want to go with this : http://minigamepainter.blogspot.com/2013/01/magnetized-world-dakka-jet.html and http://funk40k.blogspot.com/2012/06/assembling-my-ork-flyer.html and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7Q2fIEIZ14 but not much else

I'd suggest building one basically complete fuselage (with your choice of tail) and then making magnetized "weapon hard points" under the wings and central fuselage. Then build weapons racks or gun pods for the various configurations, including magnetizing the big wazbom gun.

So if you want a dakkajet, just add some cobbled together "gun pods" under the wings, bombs or rockets for the bommas, and energy-weapon pods for the blastajet.
