About product

Quickboost engine P-47D Thunderbolt 1:48

A resin casting of the air-cooled radial engine for the American fighter P-47D Thunderbolt in 1:48 scale by the brand Quickboost. It is not an aircraft model but an accurate replacement part for experienced modelers that replaces the simplified engine from the kit with a faithful casting showing the detail of the cylinders, the valve gear and the ancillaries. The part comes into its own above all in a build with the cowling open, where the power unit is visible.

What the part is for

The P-47 Thunderbolt was one of the largest and heaviest single-seat fighters of the Second World War; it was powered by a turbocharged eighteen-cylinder radial engine that gave the aircraft its strength at high altitude as well. A faithfully rendered engine is therefore a rewarding detail that adds authenticity to a model.

Usage tips

Wash the resin parts in lukewarm water with dish soap to remove the mold release agent. Cut the casting blocks off with a sharp knife or a saw, sand the surfaces and protect your airways when sanding resin. Glue with cyanoacrylate. It is worth spraying the engine with a base color, picking the cylinders and the valve gear out in metallic shades and deepening the whole with a dark wash; the small lines can be brought out with a dry brush.

Who the part is for

  • For modelers building the P-47 Thunderbolt in 1:48 scale
  • For more experienced builders working with the cowling open
  • For lovers of finely rendered power units
  • For collectors of Second World War fighters

It is supplied as an unpainted resin accessory for completing a model. Glue, paints and the model itself are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a separate resin casting of an engine, that is a detail accessory that replaces the engine in your own P-47 kit. The aircraft model is not included.

It comes into its own most in a build with the cowling open, where the power unit is visible. With the cowling closed the engine tends to be hidden.

Wash it free of mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off, sand the surfaces and glue with cyanoacrylate. Ordinary cement for plastic does not hold on resin.
