About product

Wheels of the mid production series for the Lancaster in 1:32

Replacement main wheels for the four-engine bomber Avro Lancaster in a large scale, supplied by the Armory brand. The designation of the product places them in the middle period of production of the aircraft and describes them as a universal set. The tread and the side are shaped into the form of a tire weighted by the mass of a standing machine.

Night over Germany

Lancasters flew mostly in the dark, in large formations and with a crew of seven men. Over seven thousand of them were built during the war and the machine became a symbol of British bomber aviation. Toward the end of the conflict alterations of the armament, the radar equipment and the landing gear appeared, so the builder of a model has to decide which period to capture. It is precisely details of the kind the wheels are that reveal such a decision to the viewer at first sight.

The weighted tire and building the landing gear leg

Weighting gives a model an impression of heaviness, but it sets one condition: it must be turned correctly. Try dry how the wheel seats, and only then glue. On large models it pays to reinforce the landing gear legs, because a finished bomber in 1:32 already weighs something. Leave the painting for later and make the glued joint between the wheel and the axle only after the varnish has dried.

Who the set is useful for

  • builders of large-format RAF models
  • anyone interested in a faithful capture of a specific period of service
  • those who want a model standing on its wheels, not on a stand
  • modelers working on a diorama of a British base

FAQ

Go by the period in which your aircraft flew and by a photograph of the particular machine. The manufacturer offers wheels divided according to production periods.

The Lancaster had tailwheel landing gear, no nose leg. The set deals with the main wheels under the engine nacelles.

Usually it is enough to clean up the mating surface and try it dry. We do not recommend larger interventions, so that the circular outline is not disturbed.

Prepare the coat of paint yourself. The rubber and the hub are painted separately, ideally before seating into the leg.
