About product

MASTER F-104 Starfighter — pitot tube 1:144

A turned metal replacement pitot tube in 1:144 scale from the MASTER company, intended for a model of the Lockheed F-104 Starfighter jet fighter. It is not a kit and not a model of the aircraft, but an accurate replacement part taking the place of the soft and easily damaged plastic piece from the original kit. The turned metal tube is finer, perfectly straight and far more resistant to bending and breaking off.

What the part is for

The pitot tube senses air pressure on an aircraft for measuring speed. On the slender Starfighter it is a striking detail on the nose. On models it is a thin protruding feature that on plastic parts often breaks or warps. The metal replacement from MASTER gives the model a fine, scale-accurate detail and is markedly stronger.

Fitting tips

Cut off the original plastic part and widen the hole with a fine drill. Glue the metal tube in with cyanoacrylate or a small drop of two-part epoxy. Degrease the part before painting and go over it with a primer for metal so that the paint holds.

Who the part is for

  • For builders of the F-104 Starfighter model in 1:144 scale
  • For modelers who want to replace a fragile plastic part with a tougher metal one
  • For anyone who likes fine detail and faithful tips

This is a replacement detail part, not a model kit. Paints, glue and the model of the aircraft are not included in the package.
