About product

A 1:48 display base with the motif of the deck of the vessel Baylander

A color display base for a model capturing the helicopter deck of the American vessel Baylander with the designation IX-514. It is not a model of the ship but a surface on which you stand a finished helicopter in the 1:48 scale given in the name.

An unusual real subject

The Baylander is a small vessel that the US Navy used for training helicopter landings on a ship's deck. That is exactly why it has an unusually extensive landing area for its size, with prominent circular markings. For a modeler it is a rewarding subject: the deck is compact enough to fit under a single machine and yet it looks convincing and easy to read.

Tips for display

  • Seat the helicopter in the middle of the circle; the markings then make sense.
  • Turn the rotor blades so that they do not overhang the edge of the board.
  • A single figure of a signaler completes the scene; more is not needed.
  • Leave space around the deck; the surface has to stay legible.

For which models

It fits under light and medium helicopters in 1:48 scale. It also serves well as a base for shots in which the machine is to be captured at the moment of touchdown, because the circular markings give the composition a natural center. It will be appreciated by collectors of naval helicopter equipment and by modelers looking for a fresh subject. The small surface has one more advantage: a machine looks bigger on it than it would on the extensive deck of a large carrier, so even a model of a smaller type stands out.

FAQ

The US Navy used it to train helicopter landings on a ship's deck, which is why it has such a prominent landing area.

Smaller and medium machines fit best. With larger types count on the rotor overhanging the edge.

It is not necessary; the surface is finished. All you need is to clear the dust off it and stand the model on it.
