About product

Underwing pylons for the OV-10D Bronco 1:48 (Aires/Quickboost)

A set of resin underwing pylons for a model of the OV-10D Bronco in 1:48 scale. This is not a model of the aircraft but an accessory: the castings will replace the corresponding plastic parts of the kit and offer thinner walls, sharper edges and a cleaner surface, which injection-molded plastic cannot manage on a feature this small.

The real subject

The OV-10D was a later version of the Bronco adapted for night observation and light strike tasks with the US Marine Corps. It can be told from the early versions above all by the modified forward fuselage with sensor equipment. The basic concept stayed the same: a twin-engine turboprop aircraft with tail booms, a good view from the tandem cockpit and the ability to work from improvised surfaces. The external stores are among the characteristic features of the aircraft's silhouette, so on a model it pays to give them attention.

Building and painting tips

First wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water and let them dry, so that no mold release agent is left on the surface. Cut the casting blocks off with a fine saw or a cutting disc and sand the traces left by them down, ideally wet and with respiratory protection. Resin dust is very fine, and a respirator or at least a mask is in order. For gluing use super glue, that is, cyanoacrylate. Once it has cured, apply a primer, which will even the resin out with the surrounding plastic and reveal small scratches that would otherwise be emphasized under the paint.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the late version of the Bronco in 1:48 scale.
  • Modelers who want the underwing pylons accurate in shape and fine.
  • More experienced builders working with resin and super glue.
  • Those who are preparing a model for the display case or for a competition.

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

FAQ

Yes, this one is listed for the later OV-10D version. For the early Bronco the manufacturer issues a separate set, so choose according to the version you are building.

It is not. It is a resin accessory that is fitted onto a plastic model of the OV-10D in 1:48 scale.

Wash them in soapy water, cut the casting blocks off, sand wet with respiratory protection, bond with super glue and spray over with a primer.

Working with resin calls for a little practice, mainly when cutting the blocks off. With a careful approach even a thorough beginner will manage it.
