Metallic Details 1:144 Antennas and sensors of Soviet civil aviation part 2 is a photo-etched set of antennas and sensors for models of Soviet and Russian airliners in 1:144 scale. It is an accessory for a model, not a kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
A set of photo-etched antennas and sensors for Soviet and Russian civil aviation in 1:144 scale, designated as the second part of this range. Small exterior elements are exactly the ones that injection-molded plastic handles worst in a small scale, because they tend to be thick and blunt and it is often simpler to cut them off and replace them. A metal part a few tenths of a millimeter thick looks like a thin antenna even once varnished, not like a plastic lump. The set is not tied to a single type of airplane; it is conceived as a universal accessory for builds of civil machines.
Airliners carry a number of small protrusions on the fuselage: communication and navigation antennas, pressure and temperature sensors, beacons and venting elements. On a real machine they are inconspicuous, but on a model it is exactly they that decide whether the surface looks empty or alive. The placement differs by type and by the particular operator, so it pays to compare the model with a photograph of the machine you are building.
Before working, leave the parts on the tape, so that the small pieces are not lost. Separate them with a scalpel against a hard surface and sand the tabs down after cutting, so that the edge is clean. Always make the bend along the marked groove and finish it in a photo-etch bending tool or between two blades. As glue, use cyanoacrylate glue applied with a pin in a really small amount, and on visible areas rather the gel kind, which does not run. Degreased sheet and a thin layer of primer are a condition for the paint and any washes to hold.
This is an add-on set for a plastic model, not a standalone kit. The base model, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
