About product

Resin wheels for the B-17 Flying Fortress, type a, with photo-etched hubcaps, 1:72

This is a resin wheel set for the B-17 Flying Fortress model of the early production series (B, C, D, E and F) in 1:72 scale. The box states a tire version marked as type a and, in addition, photo-etched hubcaps for the wheels. It is not an aircraft kit but an accessory that replaces the wheels from the plastic kit.

The real subject

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress was an American four-engine heavy bomber, deployed in the Second World War above all over Europe. The early B through F series differed from the late G series in armament and in detail, and the machines received tires from various suppliers, so their tread pattern differs. That is why the maker of the set offers two wheel versions for the early series, distinguished on the box by a letter and a pair of characters.

How to work with resin

  • Wash the parts in warm soapy water before gluing; this removes any mold release residue
  • Cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a cutting disc, do not snap them
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue, as resin does not react to polystyrene cements
  • Protect your airways when sanding, as resin dust must not be inhaled
  • Apply a primer before painting, as without it the shade holds poorly on resin

Who the set is for

For modelers of Second World War bombers in 1:72 who are building the early B-17 series and want a wheel with the correct pattern and with a photo-etched hubcap. A weighted tire also sits the model visually on the ground. The number of parts is not stated here; check the contents of the package on the box.

This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The aircraft received tires from various suppliers and their tread pattern differed. The manufacturer therefore offers two versions and distinguishes them on the box by a letter; what exactly the abbreviations stand for is not stated here.

They are thin metal discs that replace the coarser plastic wheel hub. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue and hold better than plastic parts added onto resin would.

It is not. The box states the early B, C, D, E and F series. For the late F and G series the manufacturer has separate sets with a different version marking.

Wash the mold release agent off the parts, cut the casting blocks off with a saw, glue with cyanoacrylate glue and apply a primer before painting. Protect your airways when sanding.
