About product

The real subject

The A-10A Thunderbolt II is a single-seat ground-attack aircraft built around a massive cannon and intended to support ground troops. The main landing gear retracts forward into fairings under the wing and the wheels stick partly out of them when retracted, which makes an emergency belly landing easier. The nose landing gear is set off to the side of the fuselage centerline.

What the set contains

The set replaces the inner spaces of the landing gear bays of a model in 1:48 scale. It brings a structure of ribs, piping and wiring that injection-molded parts as a rule only suggest, and it thereby deepens the places you can see well into on a model standing on its landing gear.

Building and painting tips

The parts are not polystyrene and they are bonded with super glue. Cut the excess material off a little way from the part with a sharp blade and sand the remainder down. The original plastic walls of the bay will most likely have to be thinned; proceed slowly and keep dry-fitting the parts. Wash and degrease the set before painting. Spray and shade the bays before the landing gear goes onto the model, because afterwards you will reach into them with a brush only with difficulty.

Who it is for

The set is for modelers who build a model standing on its landing gear and want it to stand an inspection from below. The work calls for a little sanding and dry-fitting, but the result shows with every look into the bay and on every photograph of the model from underneath. The kit itself, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Add-on parts of the landing gear bays for an A-10A model in 1:48 scale. The kit of the aircraft, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.

As a rule yes. The walls of the original bay usually have to be thinned so that the set seats. Proceed slowly and keep dry-fitting the parts.

Before the landing gear legs and the doors are fitted. You will reach into a finished bay with a brush only with difficulty.

The benefit is mainly on a model standing on its landing gear. With the gear retracted most of the detail stays hidden.
