About product

A turned pitot tube for the Canberra in 1:144 scale

This is not an aircraft model but a small replacement part. The turned metal pitot tube replaces the plastic molding, which in this scale is always too thick and fragile, and which cannot be decently repaired once broken off. The metal part has the right shape and a thin wall, yet it withstands normal handling of a finished model. The manufacturer is Poland's MASTER, which has long specialized in turned metal accessories for modelers.

What the part is for

The pitot tube measures the dynamic pressure of the oncoming air and is part of the system for measuring airspeed. On the real Canberra it is one of the conspicuous details on the nose, or rather on the wing, and thin projections like that are the weakest point of plastic kits. Replacing it with a metal part is therefore one of the simplest modifications with an immediately visible result.

Use

  • Cut the plastic part off and level the surface.
  • Drill a hole of the matching diameter in the correct place.
  • Glue the metal part in with super glue, ideally only after the model is finished.
  • Degrease the surface before painting, and use a primer for metal if needed.

Who it is for

For modelers who build the Canberra in 1:144 scale and want to raise the level of detail without major surgery on the kit. The modification is manageable even for the less experienced; all you need for it is a micro drill, a sharp knife and super glue.

This is an accessory for modelers, not a kit. Glue, paints and the base model are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a separate replacement part that is fitted to a model already built or under construction.

With super glue, that is, cyanoacrylate. Ordinary cement for plastic does not hold on metal.

That depends on the look you want. Degrease the surface before painting, and use a primer intended for metal if needed.

The exact number of pieces is stated on the packaging.
