About product

Eduard 1:35 CH-54A exterior photo-etched set

A set of photo-etched metal for finishing the outside of a plastic model of the CH-54A helicopter in 1:35 scale. The designation exterior says that the set deals with the surface of the machine, not the interior — that is with the shapes that on the real helicopter are made of thin sheet, wire or mesh and that injection-molded plastic cannot make thin enough on a model. It is an accessory for a model, not a kit; the base model is sold separately.

By the code range this is a full photo-etched set, not an abbreviated variant.

The real subject

The Sikorsky CH-54A Tarhe is an American heavy helicopter of the flying crane concept. It has no conventional cargo compartment — the fuselage is narrowed to a beam between the cabin and the tail, and the load is carried slung beneath it or in a container between the tall landing gear legs. The six-blade main rotor, the long landing gear legs and the exposed units mean that there are plenty of small shapes on the outside of the machine, and photo-etched parts suit them exactly in 1:35 scale.

How photo-etched parts are worked with

Nip the parts out with a scalpel on glass or a hard surface and clean the remains of the gates up. Make the bends in a bender or between razor blades, and always in one movement. For exterior parts it suits to bond with super glue that has a longer setting time — there is then time to align a part before it hardens. In the places where a photo-etched part is to go, first cut and sand away the molded plastic detail, or the new part will not seat. Degrease the metal before painting and spray it with a primer; then level the finished surface with the rest of the model, so that the metal parts do not stand out with a different texture.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to refine the outside of a large helicopter
  • Builders who already have experience of photo-etched parts and bending metal
  • Those after a full photo-etched set rather than an abbreviated variant
  • Those who build the CH-54A in 1:35 scale for a display case or a competition

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

FAQ

That the set deals with the outside of the machine, that is with the surface and the external details, not with the fittings of the cabin.

No, it is an accessory set. The plastic CH-54A model in 1:35 scale has to be bought separately.

Working with photo-etched parts calls for a sharp scalpel, a bending tool or razor blades, and a calm hand. As a first photo-etched set in one's life it is a big bite, but the technique can be learned.

Reckon on priming and painting the parts yourself.
