About product

Bf 109F/G tropical filter, late version (1:48, Quickboost)

This is NOT an aircraft model but a precisely cast resin accessory from the Quickboost brand in 1:48 scale. It replaces the plastic part of the tropical filter for the supercharger intake and gives a Messerschmitt Bf 109F and G model in desert service finer and truer detail. The set matches the late shape variant of the filter.

The real subject

The tropical filter (Tropenfilter) protected the Daimler-Benz engine from swirling sand over North Africa and the Mediterranean. It was fitted over the mouth of the supercharger intake on the side of the fuselage. The shape of the filter developed during service, which is why an early and a late version are distinguished.

Fitting and tips

Wash the mold release agent off the part, cut off the casting block and level the mating surface. Glue with super glue (cyanoacrylate), and sand with respiratory protection. Once cleaned up, the filter is sprayed together with the fuselage of the model.

Who the set is for

  • builders of tropical versions of the Bf 109F/G
  • modelers aiming at a true supercharger intake
  • more advanced enthusiasts of working with resin
  • collectors of detailed aircraft accessories

Supplied as an unpainted resin accessory. Paints, glue and the model are not included in the package.

FAQ

No, it is a separate resin accessory, a replacement tropical intake filter for a Bf 109F/G model.

The late variant has a different shape of the filter body than the early one. This set matches the late version.

Resin parts are glued with super glue (cyanoacrylate), not with ordinary cement for plastic.
