About product

P-36A Hawk engine 1:48 (Quickboost)

A precisely cast resin radial engine for the American Curtiss P-36A Hawk fighter in 1:48 scale. It is an aftermarket detail part for the engine bay that replaces the simplified plastic engine from a base kit, not a stand-alone aircraft model.

The real subject

The Curtiss P-36 Hawk was an American single-seat fighter of the late 1930s with a Pratt & Whitney R-1830 Twin Wasp radial engine. In the P-36A version it served with the US Army as the predecessor of the later P-40. The export equivalent, the Hawk 75, was used among others by the French air service at the start of the war.

Tips for use and fitting

Resin parts call for more careful work than plastic: first wash them to remove mold release residue, separate them carefully from the casting block and bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Protect your airways when sanding and cutting small parts. Apply a primer before painting. The cylinders and the lines of the engine come into their own once painted in metallic shades and gone over with a dry brush; before the cowling is closed, check the seating depth dry.

Who the part is for

  • Modelers building the Curtiss P-36A Hawk in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone interested in a faithful radial engine under an open cowling
  • Builders of dioramas with the engine bay open
  • Collectors of prewar and early war aviation subjects

The part is supplied as a resin accessory, unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail part, that is, an aftermarket accessory. The base kit has to be bought separately.

The part is shaped for the American Curtiss P-36A Hawk fighter in 1:48 scale. The exact fit in a particular kit is best checked dry, because the ranges of the makers differ.

Wash it to remove mold release residue, separate it from the casting block and bond it with super glue. Protect your airways while sanding. The work is a little more demanding than with plastic.
