About product

Grunau Baby IIb Poland in 1:48 scale (FLY)

A multimedia kit of the single-seat Grunau Baby IIb training glider from the Polish manufacturer FLY, this time in the edition with Polish markings. The set combines injection-molded plastic with resin parts, photo-etched metal and a decal sheet; it is a short-run kit suited rather to more experienced modelers.

The real subject

The Grunau Baby is a classic single-seat training glider of wooden construction that goes back to a design by Edmund Schneider from the early 1930s. The IIb version was among the most widespread training sailplanes of its day and was used for basic unpowered training in many countries, including postwar service in Poland. A strut-braced high wing with a simple, robust structure is typical of it.

Building and painting tips

Wash the mold release agent off the resin parts and cut off the casting blocks, then glue them with cyanoacrylate glue. Dry-fit the injection-molded parts and fill the joints carefully. The slender surfaces paint well with an airbrush over a fine primer; apply the decals over a smooth gloss varnish and seal them with a matte clear coat.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of training gliders and unpowered aircraft
  • Anyone interested in Polish markings and postwar service
  • Modelers with experience of short-run kits
  • Builders who will appreciate the combination of plastic, resin and photo-etched parts

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

This boxing brings the versions with Polish markings; otherwise it is the same single-seat Grunau Baby IIb training glider.

It is a multimedia kit with injection-molded plastic, resin parts, photo-etched parts and a decal sheet.

Given the short-run technology and the resin, it is better suited to more experienced modelers.
