About product

A rudder control rod, type 1, in 1:48 scale

A small detail accessory for aircraft models in 1:48 scale. According to the name it is a rudder control rod in the make designated type 1. Neither a particular aircraft nor a particular kit is given in the name, so it is a part usable anywhere such a rod occurs on the real subject and where in plastic it is only coarsely suggested or missing altogether. It is in no case a kit of an aircraft.

What such a part deals with on a model

External elements of the controls are among the details that an injection mold manages worst. Either they come out too thick, or because of the mold seam line they are simplified into the form of a mere rib. A separately made part is therefore noticeably closer to reality in 1:48 scale and on a finished model it supports the impression that this is a machine of metal and not an enlarged toy. Because it is a small element, it suits above all models you build as a display piece and where a close-up view is to be expected.

Usage tips

  • First check against photographs what the rod really looks like on your subject and where it belongs.
  • Wash the part in lukewarm water with detergent and cut the casting remnants away with a saw.
  • Given the small dimensions, work with tweezers and over a surface, not over a carpet.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue drop by drop, ideally applied with a pin.
  • Fit it only after the main painting is finished, so that the small part does not break off in handling.

Who the accessory is for

For more experienced modelers who fine-tune details and do not mind work with very small parts. If you build a model quickly and without changes, you do not need this accessory.

FAQ

No particular type of aircraft is given in the name. It is a general part whose suitability for your subject should be checked against photographs.

It is not. It is a small detail in its own right meant to round out a model in 1:48 scale already under way.

Best only after the main painting. Small projecting parts break off easily in handling.
