About product

Dornier Do 335 Pfeil — landing gear bays 1:48 (Aires)

A resin detail set, not an airplane model. The set brings faithfully cast landing gear bays of the German Dornier Do 335 Pfeil heavy fighter with fine internal ribbing, lines and wall structure. It replaces the shallow and simplified bays of a plastic kit in 1:48 scale and gives the landing gear compartments scale depth and detail.

The real subject

The Do 335 Pfeil (arrow) was a German heavy fighter of the end of the Second World War with an unusual arrangement of two engines in tandem: a tractor propeller in the nose, a pusher at the tail. Low aerodynamic drag made it one of the fastest piston aircraft of its day. The rugged machine had nose landing gear and roomy landing gear bays.

Tips for working with resin

First wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water and rid them of mold release residue. Cut the casting blocks off carefully with a saw and level the surfaces; wear a respirator when sanding resin, as the dust is harmful. They are bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate), not with ordinary cement for plastic. Lay down a base primer before painting.

Who the set is for

  • For more experienced modelers building the Do 335 in 1:48 scale
  • For lovers of landing gear bay detail
  • For fans of German aircraft of the Second World War
  • For builders for whom the shallow bays from the box are not enough

This is a detail accessory, not a model. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail set of landing gear bays meant to improve a Do 335 kit in 1:48 scale, which has to be bought separately.

They are the compartments into which the wheels retract in flight. The plastic from the box is often shallow and smooth; resin gives the bays depth and a faithful structure.

For more experienced modelers. It calls for cutting off the casting blocks, possible reworking to seat them in the fuselage, and bonding with super glue.

With super glue (cyanoacrylate), not with ordinary cement for plastic. First wash the mold release agent off the parts and lay down a primer before painting.
