About product

F6F Hellcat Wheel Bays PRINT 1:48 (Eduard)

A 3D printed resin set from the Brassin PRINT range by the Czech maker Eduard (Obrnice near Most), intended to improve the kit of the Grumman F6F Hellcat carrier fighter in 1:48 scale. The set replaces the main landing gear wheel bays with finely worked parts carrying a delicate structure of ribs, piping and rivets. It is not an airplane model but an upgrade detail accessory.

What the set replaces and improves

The simplified bays from the plastic kit are replaced by faithful 3D printed wells with crisp detail that injection-molded plastic cannot capture. The result is a realistic view into the landing gear bays, which comes into its own above all on a model displayed with the gear down.

How to use the set

Carefully separate the parts from the print supports, wash off the uncured resin residue and bond them with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Apply a primer before painting, then spray thin coats with an airbrush and bring the detail out with a wash. The set will be appreciated rather by more experienced modelers.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the F6F Hellcat fighter in 1:48 scale
  • Modelers who want realistic landing gear bays
  • Advanced builders with experience of resin and 3D printing
  • Fans of US Navy carrier aircraft

The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue and paints are not included in the package. This is not a complete airplane model but an accessory for another kit.

FAQ

They are the wells into which the landing gear retracts. This set replaces them with detailed 3D printed parts and is intended for the F6F Hellcat kit in 1:48 scale.

No, it is a detail accessory. You have to have the complete aircraft from another kit; this set only improves the landing gear bays.

Bond the 3D printed resin parts with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); first wash off the uncured resin and separate them from the print supports.
